8 years ago By getting the driver to take an exit on the first try, rather than trying 100 times, then I can get some debug information out. Shortly after this is printed, the machine hangs, and it's BRB...

I am running Debian Squeeze with the 4.2.0-1 kernel on an Asrock N3150M, with a TechniSat SkyStar 2 eXpress HD. I have followed the instructions on http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TBS6280 to build and install the modules, which are correctly loading.
02:00.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7160 (rev 03) Subsystem: Device 1ae4:0700 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 18 Memory at 91300000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M] Capabilities: [40] MSI: Enable- Count=1/32 Maskable- 64bit+ Capabilities: [50] Express Endpoint, MSI 00 Capabilities: [74] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [80] Vendor Specific Information: Len=50 <?> Capabilities: [100] Vendor Specific Information: ID=0000 Rev=0 Len=088 <?> Kernel driver in use: SAA716x Budget
However, once the card is being used (e.g. tvheadend is scanning for channels), after a relatively short period of time (5-10 minutes), the machine 'freezes', and my only choice is the Big Red Button (it's small and greenish, but thats a super micro-case for you :-)).
Adding verbose=2 gives me the following log message: saa716x_i2c_send (0): FIFO full or Blocked
