em8300 Kbuild fix for compat_ioctl

Hi all,
Starting with kernel 3.1 I have a problem with em8300_ioctl32 not being 
compiled into my em8300 kernel module.
The system is 32-bit debian with an amd64 kernel.
The kernel headers come from the debian package. The em8300 module is 
compiled from source.

Looking into the problem I found ARCH to be "x86"! I have no idea why 
this is so but I suspect that depending on CONFIG_COMPAT is the better 
approch any way.

So feel free to apply attached patch to the em8300 repository.

Regards,
Uli

Latest release?

Hi there ...

I've somehow lost the overview ;)

What is the best source for to build a working release for *buntu/debian? I do 
need an updated package, for to release MMS on current Ubuntu/Debian.

So, what to use as a base?

Regards 
Roman

em8300 working with recent kernels again. Pushed to github

Hi All,
em8300 with recent kernels has been broken for too long 
I pushed fixes for em8300 to work with 3.0 kernels to my github repository:
git://github.com/uluckas/em8300.git

The fixes are missing some #ifdef KERNEL_VERSION an so most likely break 
older builds. Sorry, I don't have the time to find out which fix is 
needed by which kernel version.

Feel free to pull to where ever the current 'official' repository is.

And big thanks to every one who contributed to the code in the repository.

regards,
Uli

Trouble with OSS audio interface under ubuntu 10.04, especially dxr3player

Hi folks,

because of hardware breakage, I replaced my home-grown Linux system that used to play DVDs on the dxr3 card
using dxr3player quite nicely with an install of 32bit ubuntu 10.04 ... this at first meant that I need to
get around without dxr3player, which is not quite available for that system.
I think I came across a .deb I managed to install, but that binary only crashed.

Back to the sources, I've realized that the dxr3player 0.11 code is problematic with a current toolchain
(C++ code/compilers have that tendency:-/) ... well, I finally managed to build the CVS version and get it
working. In the meantime, I also switched to self-built em8300 driver modules from the 0.18 release, but
still using the stock ubuntu kernel (2.6.32-something).

Now, I'm having issues with the sound from the dxr3. I'm actually trying to use it as only sound output for the
machine (thinking about a/v sync when playing via dxr3) and already resorted to killing off pulseaudio as
that really interferes with happiness, a lot (with MPlayer, at least, which I use for other material than
DVDs). The basic trouble of dxr3player is now that when I start it after a normal system boot, it produces
wild static noise on the audio output. This app is using the OSS interface... so I tried to investigate what
other programs do with that, and also found funky effects in mpg123 -o oss (stuttering, but not static noise).

A workaround seems to be to reload the em8300 driver before starting dxr3player, or any other OSS app, for
that matter. I have the impression that client programs manage to mess up the OSS part of the em8300 driver
somehow, the reload fixing the state so that the next app can work. Well, one obvious way forward would have
been to simply tell users to switch to the ALSA interface all-around, which hopefully works better (I only
rememeber some stuttering in the startup desktop tune, but good operation overall, as long as you kick out
pulseaudio). But development of dxr3player is not that rapid (that one could suddenly expect a flawless
ALSA output option), and seeing how development of any sensible alternative for proper DVD playback
(namely mplayer's dvdnav://) is not getting in shape for many years now, it would be really nice if we could
fix up the current em8300 OSS part... dxr3player is the killer app for my dxr3, for sure.

Can people confirm my observation about OSS being troublesome, especially with dxr3player? How far is it
tested / on what kernels?

Alrighty then,

Thomas.
