Bug 91837

Summary:	ivtv-0.2.0_rc3j.ebuild not installing all compiled modules
Product:	Gentoo Linux	Reporter:	Jerry Thoundayil <thoundayil>
Component:	New packages	Assignee:	Television related Applications in Gentoo's Portage <media-tv>
Status:	RESOLVED LATER
Severity:	normal	CC:	jmjohnson
Priority:	High
Version:	unspecified

Description Jerry Thoundayil 2005-05-07 15:16:07 UTC

I just tried this new ebuild from portage and found out some of the compiled modules are not put under the /lib/modules directory.

Modules missing, shound be under MODULE_NAMES in the ebuild:
cx25840
tuner
wm8775

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Capture the emerge ivtv-0.2.0_rc3-r4 to a text file
2. Look at the compiled modules (.ko files)
3. Then look at the /lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/extra
Actual Results:  
I did not see the cx25840.ko, tuner.ko and wm8775.ko under the
/lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/extra.

Expected Results:  
I should see the cx25840.ko, tuner.ko and wm8775.ko under the
/lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/extra directory.

Also change the echo comments about the modules too.

The pvr-150/500 support is still considered experimental, therefore it doesn't get installed. The tuner module should be unnecessary for the 250/350's.

Comment 2 Jerry Thoundayil 2005-05-09 10:48:28 UTC

I know of the experimental 0.3.0 support for the 150/500 cards, but this ebuild is installing the 0.2.0-rc3j stable realase.  I might be confused, was the 150/500 support a port of the 0.3.0 driver or a patch to the 0.2.0 driver?

If the modules are still not allowed to be installed, I can understand.  However, could there be message at the end of the ebuild to inform the user why.  Like myself, the user would be confused when the change log said it was included in the 0.2.0-rc3j release.

Comment 3 Jeremy Johnson 2005-05-24 11:12:25 UTC

I just finished redoing my mythtv box last night and upgraded to this ivtv
ebuild. All I got was static when I brought up myth so I did a little digging
and from what it looks like, the tuner module *is* needed by the pvr250's. I'm
at work at the moment so I'm not 100% positive this is true but I will check
when I get home.

My card gets detected incorrectly by the module so I have to force it with the
following line in modules.d/ivtv:

options ivtv ivtv_debug=1 tuner=39

Without the tuner.ko module installed in lib/modules I get the following error
in dmesg:

ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ====================
ivtv: version 0.2.0 (rc3) loading
ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.11.10 preempt K7 4KSTACKS gcc-3.3

ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x61 not found!
ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x61 not found!
...
ivtv: ====================  END INIT IVTV  ====================

If I change the ebuild to include tuner.ko then I get the following:

ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ====================
ivtv: version 0.2.0 (rc3j) loading
ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.11.10 preempt K7 4KSTACKS gcc-3.3

ivtv: Setting Tuner 39
tuner: type set to 39 (LG NTSC (newer TAPC series)) by ivtv i2c driver #0
...
ivtv: ====================  END INIT IVTV  ====================

Also without the tuner module installed when I tried to modprobe the ivtv module
I got an error, something to the effect of: 'FATAL: tuner module not found', but
the other modules still loaded.  So what I can determine is that the tuner
module is used to change the card type, and perhaps more.  If you need more info
just let me know and I will test my box tonight when I get home and report back
if it now works instead of getting static.  Thanks!

Comment 4 Gregg Casillo 2005-05-24 12:38:50 UTC

I am seeing a couple problems with an install from the 0.2.0_rc3-r4 ebuild. My
setup is as follows:

1) I only put "ivtv" in /etc/modules.autoload/kernel-2.6
2) I have the two basic lines in /etc/modules.d/ivtv

alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv

3) I rename my kernel's msp3400.ko in /lib/modules/<kernel
version/kernel/drivers/media/video to kernel.msp3400. This allows ivtv's
msp3400.ko module to load as needed.

Up until now, whenever the ivtv module was loaded at boot (or manually) the
following modules were loaded:

Module                  Size  Used by
msp3400                27704  0
saa7115                12824  0
tuner                  21668  0
tveeprom               12212  0
ivtv                  809444  0
i2c_algo_bit            9480  1 ivtv
i2c_core               19328  5 msp3400,saa7115,tuner,tveeprom,i2c_algo_bit
videodev                8704  1 ivtv

But with rc3-r4, msp3400 and saa7115 do not load. I have to either add them to
my /etc/modules.autoload/kernel-2.6 or add this line to my /etc/modules.d/ivtv:

add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115

But here's the real dealbreaker. Once I get all the modules loaded, I get video
that looks sped up and no audio. For reference, I'm seeing this with a couple
PVR-250 cards.

However, once I unmerge rc3-r4 including removing all config files (ivtv
references from the config files) and merge rc3-r3, everything works perfectly.
The msp3400 and saa7115 modules are loaded with the two basic lines in
/etc/modules.d/ivtv, the video looks good, and I have good audio.

It appears rc3-r3 uses the rc3g.tar.gz tarball; rc3-r4, the rc3j.tar.gz tarball.
Perhaps there's something in rc3j that's throwing off my PVR-250s? Here's the
ivtv specific info from dmesg (from the working install):

Hmmm, here's the dmesg info from the non-working install. Note how it's
referencing my cards at PVR-150s instead of PVR-250s. Could this be the issue?

Comment 5 Jeremy Johnson 2005-05-24 17:41:10 UTC

Just got home and tested it out, looks like adding the tuner module was the key
for me. I now get picture and sound, so I would recommend adjusting the ebuild
to install the tuner module.


Gregg, not sure what's wrong with your setup but it definitely looks like it's
detecting the wrong card. I had to specify my card in /etc/modules.d/ivtv as
follows:

alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
options ivtv ivtv_debug=1 tuner=39
options msp3400 once=0 simpler=1 simple=0
add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115 tuner saa7127

You can see the line where 'tuner=39'.  I would suggest looking in the ivtv docs
for your card.  They have a big list of all the cards and what number they are,
but I can't remember the file name at the moment.  Hope that helps.

Comment 6 Gregg Casillo 2005-05-29 19:55:45 UTC

Thanks, everybody for working through this bug. Jeremy, 
your /etc/modules.d/ivtv works nicely for my 350 at home. I'll give rc3-r4 a go 
at work this week with some added confidence. Thanks!

Kernel 2.6.11 supports up to tuner 52 which should work for all ivtv cards.

When ivtv is ready, the ebuild will start installing the other modules.
