Description:bttv kernel module and related dependencies fail to tune radio.


Additional info:Has been a mainstream problem since 3.x, going back to 2.6x kernel restores full operation.



Steps to reproduce:Use a supported combination TV tuner/FM radio tuner card and radio will not tune, but TV tuner will still operate. Tuning a TV station and then switching to radio application will result in TV audio. rmmod bttv module will also give possible message about unable to reset line. Other messages have been noted with other cards by other various people such as when enabling radio as a module argument, states that it will be putting tuner to sleep.
This task depends upon

This needs to be reported upstream. There's no packaging bug here.

Any progress on this one? Has you reported to the kernel devs?

As far as I know, the bttv 848/878 has been fixed from a recommendation of change to one of the source files and is currently working as of 3.5.x in the mainstream.

So this is no longer an issue for you? Can this be closed?
