i2c xfer timeout

[pyvet]

I have TBS 6909 and Cesbo Astra. If I use 4 adapters (number 0, 1, 2, 3) - everything works well. But if
I add the adapter 5 - signal disappears on all adapters and get error messages "i2c xfer timeout" when server restart. Who has the same problem? How to fix it?

I TRIED DIFFERENT MOTHERBOARD. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. THE SIGNAL LOSS WAS GOING ON ALWAYS ADDING NEXT ADAPTER (NUMBER 5)

i2c xfer timeout

hmm looks like he is having same trouble as i am , this card TBS6909 i have all 8 tunners
working, just getting Vertical TP signal...

i have 1 cable that connects direct single band no diseqc switch enabled nothing.. just 1 single cable coming from sat dish direct to tunner 0 connected, and from there i have 8 TPs working all on Vertical Position,

after couple of hours start getting all this kernel and i2c error timeout messages on the log and cards starts shutting down i know its a driver problema, because here lsdvb command stop responding with error message like pyvet user posted..

if i reboot the PC server this works ok for couple of hours untill same problem occurs..
