Hi, Thank you. That approach worked. (mostly)
I reinstalled the standard kernel rpms, went through the modules directories for files that were newly created and rebooted; when I plugged the device in, it displayed video (in analog via the standard television interface, at least. I had to leave the "empia" directory and its newly compiled modules in place; I found that the tuner would not work without them. I suspect that I'm running from a mixed system of modules from different software versions. Audio doesnt work yet; em28xx_audio fails to load with various unknown symbol errors. For analog, I can work around by using a composite input and converter cable to get the audio in to a microphone or line-in port on my soundcard. Not the most elegant method, but it should be adequate. I'm still working on getting over-the-air digital from the antenna; I dont think that xawtv or kdetv knows anything about digital, and I havent yet convinced Kaffeine to scan for channels. I dont know whether to expect audio to work once I get video, but I wont be able to use the workaround in this case. - Jonathan > Hi, > > On Wed, Dec 3, 2008 at 10:06 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> So, Ive gone back to the store and purchased an HVR-950, with no Q >> modifier. >> >> "hg clone -r 262 http://xxxxx"; got the compile to happen, but even after >> reboot I get "disagrees with version of symbol errors".
