Does this ever happen under normal use when not using the TV capture card? This happens before the tvcard is opened /dev/video0. i could isolate the code and create a test program if you like. Please do so. If you find the exact cause of the problem, make sure to submit it to the XFree86 team. |
While trying to run a TV capure card on my 164LX-533 alpha on a Trio64 (4mb video ram) video card, the X libs freeze up. The program was recompiled (have tried both tvset-net and xawtv , with the same resulting problem produced in a backtrace) using GDB, 0x20000c0cce0 in __select () at __select:2 __select:2: No such file or directory.
