After switching from nvidia-kernel-1.0.4363-r3 to 4496-r3, video input from rivatv (displayed with xawtv) freezes erratically (image stands) and can only be put back to motion by resizing the xawtv window (which leads to rivatv: stopping overlay rivatv: stopping video capture rivatv: starting video capture rivatv: starting overlay: 384x288 at (697,214) in syslog, ie. a restart of the overlay). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to nvidia-kernel-1.0.4496 2. emerge rivatv 3. Use xawtv and wait for up to a minute for the freeze. Actual Results: rivatv is unusable due to image freezes, I had to downgrade to nvidia-kernel-4363 Expected Results: rivatv should work with the new nvidia-kernel drivers Portage 2.0.49-r3 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r1, 2.4.22) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.22 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) Processor ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=athlon -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="sandbox ccache autoaddcvs" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo http://www.fhh.opensource-mirror.de/gentoo.org/ ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/ ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/gentoo ftp://ftp.fhh.opensource-mirror.de/pub/gentoo.org/ rsync://rsync.fhh.opensource-mirror.de/gentoo http://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/download/gentoo-mirror/ ftp://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gentoo-mirror/ rsync://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gentoo/ http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/home/bigfoot/programming/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 oss apm avi crypt cups encode foomaticdb gif jpeg gnome libg++ mad mikmod mmx mpeg ncurses nls pdflib png quicktime spell truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib alsa gdbm berkdb slang readline arts aalib svga tcltk java ruby mysql postgres X sdl gpm tcpd pam libwww ssl perl python esd imlib oggvorbis gtk qt kde motif opengl mozilla ldap cdr 3dnow curl dvd faad flash gd imap innodb mbox mcal memlimit odbc tiff"
Both rivatv 0.8.2 and 0.8.3 have been tested with this.
