[Bug 815705] Re: blank screen at boot after upgrading to Natty from v10.10

 

I made some progress : actually, in my previous xorg.conf, I was loading
the module "v4l" (I am not sure why I loaded it - must have been a test
a long time ago) - as soon as I commented it, I got my display back !

Actually, I have an Hauppauge HVR-1300 TV card, which always had some
troubles with recent kernels (but eventually worked); actually it works
in normal TV mode, but as soon as I try to connect to the MPEG2 encoder,
the software used (mplayer, kaffeine, whatever) just stalls and is not
killable any more ! (as X did recently !).

I just saw here :

http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-1300

that the driver was broken in a previous kernel version, and it has just
been fixed - well, may be the fix is just partial - So I guess this
issue is closed, and I am going to open another one about the Conexant
driver ...
