It seems to work even with the nvidia module loaded, but once I start X, it stops working. I thought that perhaps the patch to the nvidia kernel module for -test5 was broken, so I used my older 2.6 nvidia kernel module source and replaced the call to kdev_val() with MINOR() but that still did not fix the problem. I can cat /dev/video0 before starting X, but afterwards it says "Device or resouce busy", even after I kill X.

I tried this set of patches and it didn't do anything for me either.
So am I pretty much on my own with this problem? Does anyone use a Bt878 card with an nvidia card under 2.6? It's strange that it used to work just fine, but after upgrading it stopped working. I might try downgrading later to -test4, but it would be unfortunate to have to run an earlier kernel without the VIA8237SATA chipset merged in =\
I read somewhere that Nvidia cards do not support the overlay extension, but I had xawtv working just fine if I disabled Xv, and it worked even better if I used grabdisplay. -- Misha Nasledov misha@nasledov.com http://nasledov.com/misha/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
