[yavdr 0.4]: System (ngene) Shutdown Issue [solved]

Hello all,
because this is my first post in the form I want to thank you all for your great work implementing, assembling and supporting the yavdr platform. After starting with yavdr (and Linux/Unix systems in commen) a few month ago with version 0.3a, I personally had a steep learning curve with the system - all with the help of this forum just by reading.

Because of some minor problems in my 0.3a System (mainly S3 nvidia and ngene issues because of older drivers) I thought it is the perfect time to restart (after a backup) with version 0.4 (see profile).

After a smooth setup without any issues and simply reconfiguration of the atric serial remote the base system really works fine. Actually only the system shutdown doesn't work out of the box - same behavior when started from VDR OSD and Webinterface:

LiveTV is going to Black Screen and after one or two Seconds the YaVdr Splash is shown. This remains forever and the system is not responsive anymore.
So my questions are:

- Is this (yaVDR - Bug #465: 0.4.0Pre1 - ngene Kernel Treiber verhindert auf ION Board das Herunterfahren - Bugstracker of yaVDR )bug still an issue and could it be the same?
- Should as proposed the 'v4l-dvb-dkms' package be activated?

It's clear that the log messages are missing here, these will follow when I have access again to the system in case that the 'visionaries' here in the forum doesn't have their glass spheres ready on hand.

1.) The package v4l-dvb-dkms should be installed automatically. If that's not the case we missed it in the detection. Please check if the package is installed or not. If not install it.
2.) as we dont want to enable it by default (as the driver developer doesnt want it and we can not judge the risk) you need to enable the shutdown workaround with
echo "options ngene shutdown_workaround=1" > /etc/modprobe.d/ngene.conf

Output of lspci -nn might be useful to add it for detection of the right dkms for any later version of yavdr.

Hi Steffen,

that worked shutdown is working again ... thank you

Quoted from "steffen_b"

Output of lspci -nn might be useful to add it for detection of the right dkms for any later version of yavdr.

Thanks

This is the card:

Which should be already detected:

elif check_pci2 "dd01:0003" || check_pci2 "18c3:0720"; then

fi


So i assume you only needed to create the config file to make it working. :)

Steffen,

your are right. I simply wasn't aware of that the "shutdown_workaround" is still necessary with the newest drivers.
Have a nice weekend
