ivtv-fb not found in Debian
I'm running a Debian lenny box. I would like to set up a Hauppauge PVR-350's video out as an X server, however, I can't seem to find the ivti-fb module in Debian.

order of IDE drives in lenny
I needed to re-install my Debian system due to a disk failure. (Used to be etch, now lenny.) I have a new primary IDE master to which I installed, and I also have an IT8212 IDE card in the machine. For some reason when booting, the IT8212 gets assigned the /dev/hda-hdd, while the onboard controller is assigned /dev/hde-hdh. During installation the onboard controler was / dev/hda-hdd, and therefore the root file system is not at its right place when booting, so the system does not start. How can I tell the kernel the order of loading the controllers? I temporarily removed the IT card, but I will need it and the drive attached to it. Now, however, the onboard IDE is /dev/hda-hdd, and the system is running.
