Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 Version: 2.6.26-10 Severity: important
Current linux kernels contain an issue that renders the dvb-bt8xx driver unusable for cards without an EEPROM (like mine). I described the problem in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12066 My DVB card isn't properly detected by the kernel and, as I described in the kernel bugzilla bug report, causes the kernel to crash when loading the bttv kernel module, which is automatically done by udev on my debian lenny installation. I'm currently using a patched 2.6.27 kernel, but I just tested the newest debian linux-image and the problem still exists. -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.27.7 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii initramfs-tools [linux-initra 0.92j tools for generating an initramfs ii module-init-tools 3.4-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 recommends no packages.
