Subject: More than 2Gb problem (dvb related) ?

Hello,

I have a computer (mother Asus Commando) with 4x1Gb Ram.

If I start without the BIOS remap memory, my BIOS and linux just see 2Gb
of ram, and DVB apps works just great.

When I enable the remapping of the memory, my BIOS and linux just see
the whole 4Gb but then, I can tune to any transponder without problem,
but I am unable to get a TS...

I have tested it with vdr/kaffeine/mplayer.

szap/kaffeine/vdr get the lock just well.

I had already asked about this on just linux-dvb ml, but maybe I am the
first one to try DVB with a system with more than 2 Gb as I didn't
receive any further info as someone get it working or not with such
amount of ram.

Anyone got an idea on what could be done to solve this issue ?

PLEASE CC to me all message in lkml as I am not subscribed to this ml :)
