[ATrpms-users] ivtv kernel module firmware timeout

[Julian Edwards]

Hi folks

Before I ask on the ivtv list, I thought I'd check here in case it's a 
packaging issue.

Using smart, I just upgraded my FC5 box from 2.6.17 and ivtv 0.7.1 to 
2.6.18-1.2257.fc5 with ivtv-kmdl-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5-0.8.2-123.fc5.at

On boot, ivtv bails out with these errors:
Feb  9 16:59:56 mythbox kernel: ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw 
firmware (262144 bytes)
[snip.....]
Feb  9 16:59:56 mythbox kernel: ivtv0 warning: 1000 ms time out waiting 
for firmware
Feb  9 16:59:56 mythbox kernel: ivtv0 warning: Failed api call 
0x00000080 with result 0xfffffff0
Feb  9 16:59:56 mythbox kernel: ivtv0 warning: Encoder firmware dead!
Feb  9 16:59:56 mythbox kernel: ivtv0: Error initializing firmware
Feb  9 16:59:56 mythbox kernel: ivtv0: Error -19 on initialization

If I modprobe -r ivtv then modprobe ivtv again it has a different error:
Feb  9 17:02:18 mythbox kernel: firmware_loading_store: unexpected value (0)
Feb  9 17:02:18 mythbox kernel: ivtv0: unable to open firmware 
v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw (must be 262144 bytes)
Feb  9 17:02:18 mythbox kernel: ivtv0: did you put the firmware in the 
hotplug firmware directory?
Feb  9 17:02:18 mythbox kernel: ivtv0 warning: failed loading encoder 
firmware
Feb  9 17:02:18 mythbox kernel: ivtv0 warning: Error loading firmware -3!
Feb  9 17:02:18 mythbox kernel: ivtv0: Error -3 initializing firmware.

If I remove it and modprobe again, it works!  This sequence is 100% 
repeatable.

Going back to 0.7.1 on 2.6.17 eliminates the errors. 

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks,
J.
