OK.  I did what you said, and I do get a signal from /dev/video0 now,

That's good...

but mythfrontend still won't show LiveTV.

That's not good...

If it's helpful, here's my dmesg info:

I do not understand this message just above. I've never seen that before.

I have a sneaky suspicion that you possibly have some ivtv-0.4.5 stuff
left over. I've had that happen a number of time. Best I can advise I
would suggest emerge -C on ivtv, then clean out the existing
/lib/modules/2.6.17-gentoo-r8. I'd probably delete the whole
directory. I'd then run make modules_install from the kernel source to
set it up again from scratch. I'd then reemerge ivtv-0.7 again and
either modprobe or reboot.

I've never seen these messages about removing cards but they seem like
part of the problem.

Note: We are running a slightly older SMP kernel here with no problems:

dragonfly modules.d # uname -a
Linux dragonfly 2.6.17-gentoo-r2 #3 SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 15 09:41:09
PDT 2006 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz GNU/Linux
dragonfly modules.d #


Maybe it's specific to 2.6.17-gentoo-r8? You could try backing up to
-r2 that I'm running.

Good luck,
Mark

Also, I'm using mythtv-0.19_p9163-r1:

camille ~ # emerge -pv mythtv

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
