[linux-dvb] Skystar 2 Rev. 2.6D receiving no data

[Stefan Lucke]

Hi,
 with my new skystar2 2.6D I've a problem when for some reason a reception from
for example Pro7 (astra 19.2e) gets in trouble. Vdr reports:
Sep 16 19:34:32 jarada jarada vdr: [14014] TS buffer on device 1 thread started (pid=13788, tid=14014)
Sep 16 19:34:33 jarada jarada vdr: [13792] frontend 0 lost lock on channel 1017, tp 212480
Sep 16 19:34:33 jarada jarada vdr: [13792] frontend 0 regained lock on channel 1017, tp 212480
Sep 16 19:34:53 jarada jarada vdr: [13792] frontend 0 lost lock on channel 1017, tp 212480
Sep 16 19:34:53 jarada jarada vdr: [13792] frontend 0 regained lock on channel 1017, tp 212480

When this happens, it is impossible to tune to other channels like ARD, .. .
Femon reports then for ARD: SNR 0xbfda 75% , BER = 0

Only restarting vdr resolves this issue.

The above situation applies to drivers from kernel 2.6.17.6 and to those pulled today via hg.

The driver for this PCI card dosn't seems to survive a S3 sleep state.
Needs unload/reload. USB cingeryT2 drivers survives S3 sleep.
