When I switch from sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.30-r8 to gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6 (both stable x86) the module cx8800 is for one part broken en one part working. cx8800 is broken for gnome-sound/gnomeradio en working for tvtime (video and audio). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: emerge gentoo-sources (installs gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6 x86) cd /usr/src rm /usr/src/linux && ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.31-gentoo-r6 /usr/src/linux cd /usr/src/linux cp ../backup.config .config etc. make oldconfig make && make modules_install emerge nvidia-driver cd /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot cp bzImage /boot/bzImage reboot I even re-emerged gnomeradio udev hal dbus alsa-utils Actual Results: module cx8800 is recognised and tvtime works (video and audio via aux) with my pci-card LeadTeck TV2000XP (00:0d.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder (rev 05)), but gnome-sound/gnomeradio-1.8 doesn't work. Gnomeradio gives a loud nois with ticks in it. Is is not the noise of not tuned to a station. No stations can be tuned. In /dev exist /dev/radio0. Expected Results: Gnomeradio works perfectly with gentoo-sources-2.6.30-r8. This must also be the result with gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6. #emerge --info Portage 2.1.6.13 (default/linux/x86/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.3.4, glibc-2.9_p20081201-r2, 2.6.30-gentoo-r8 i686) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.30-gentoo-r8-i686-Intel-R-_Pentium-R-_4_CPU_2.53GHz-with-gentoo-1.12.13 Timestamp of tree: Sun, 29 Nov 2009 10:00:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 4.0_p28 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.9-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.5.4-r3, 2.6.2-r1 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4-r3 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.13 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.6-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6a virtual/os-headers: 2.6.27-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O3 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config /var/lib/hsqldb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/language.dat.d /etc/texmf/language.def.d /etc/texmf/updmap.d /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O3 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks fixpackages parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/os/linux/gentoo" LANG="en_US.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acl acpi alsa avahi berkdb bluetooth branding bzip2 cairo cdda cdr cli consolekit cracklib crypt cups dbus dri dts dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd evo fam ffmpeg firefox flac foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk hal iconv ipv6 java jpeg kde ldap libnotify mad mikmod modules mp3 mp4 mpeg mudflap ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia odbc ogg opengl openmp oss pam pcre pdf perl png ppds pppd python qt3support qt4 quicktime readline reflection scanner sdl se2 session spell spl sse ssl startup-notification svg sysfs tcpd thunar tiff truetype unicode usb v4l v4l2 vorbis win32codecs x264 x86 xml xorg xulrunner xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse joystick evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS #lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 645xx (rev 02) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Virtual PCI-to-PCI bridge (AGP) 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS963 [MuTIOL Media IO] (rev 04) 00:02.1 SMBus: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS961/2 SMBus Controller 00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] 00:03.0 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.1 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.1 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.1 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.2 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.1 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.3 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 2.0 Controller 00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 91) 00:08.0 Serial controller: Device 4348:3253 (rev 10) 00:09.0 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.

Please test with gentoo-sources-2.6.32-r1
De module CX8800 for gnomeradio and tvtime works good with sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.32-r1 (~x86). I noticed that after make oldconfig /device drivers/multimedia group was completely unmarked so something must have changed there. Anyway it is solved for me. Thanks Teun
I think it is ok now to close the bug. Teun
