[SOLVED]Tuner stoped working after kernel update (2.6.25)
I upgraded kernel 2.6.24 to 2.6.25 and my Hauppauge WINTV tuner stopped working. Although it was recognized as I show in dmesg I had the following error "tuner 1-0061: tuner type not set". I downgraded to kernel 2.6.24 (and also downgraded nvidia and lirc packages which were dependencies) and the tuner works fine. This time tuner type is set correctly "tuner 1-0061: type set to Philips PAL/SECAM m" What should I do to make it work with newest kernel?
This is some info from dmesg relevant to my tuner card.

Re: [SOLVED]Tuner stoped working after kernel update (2.6.25)
I tried the latest 2.26.5.6 kernel and I get the same tuner 1-0061: tuner type not set message. This time when I open xawtv I can watch the first channel in my list, but I can't change between channels. Radio doesn't work at all.
Below I include modules that are loaded in kernel .25 and after that those loaded with the working .24 one. Any ideas?

Re: [SOLVED]Tuner stoped working after kernel update (2.6.25)
I found out this mail in video4linux mailing list: http://lists-archives.org/video4linux/2 … -6-25.html The problem is known and it affects other tv cards also. They have found a solution but the patch hasn't been included in the latest kernel (I think so). So it's not arch specific.
Does anyone know how I can manually add the type of my card to get it loaded with the cx88xx module? I read here that I have to type something like that:
modprobe cx88xx tuner=56 && modprobe cx8800
I tried that but I get the same error. Maybe I should somehow make it load when my system boots? How can I do that?
Edit:
[SOLVED]
I added the following line in /etc/modprobe.conf and the card is detected just fine! 
option cx88xx tuner=38Last edited by axel (2008-06-16 18:13:01)
