Hi,

I just tried to upgrade my working (and backed up) R5A12 to R5A15. This seemed to work fine but it appears that my PVR-250 isn't being recognized. How can I configure the PVR card?

Here's my dmesg

Take a look at the last two lines you posted. If that doesn't help, perhaps this will.

Thank you very much . That fixed the problem.

cecil, i fail to see how anyone searching for the error lines would come across that post you linked. pepole here are so pissy about how nobody can find things when they search, but there's no reason that they should find certain things. . .

I guess you were digging for a fight... This thread is almost a year old. At no time did I tell adrianbc to search the forum. I told him exactly where to look in the log he posted. In addition, I gave him the exact link on how to solve this. He even reported back that the fix works. If memory serves, I even flagged this possible problem in my release notes.

So, what exactly is your problem? Did I tell you to search in another thread? If so, why are you appending to what is a resolved thread? If you don't like the way things are conducted on the forum, don't visit it. It is that simple.

Do yourself a favor... Think before your respond.
