Hi Phil... > There is, somewhere on the disk, the older .ko module. Find out where > by first rmmod'ing ivtv (however may be required; lsmod must show it > absent), then run "modprobe -v ivtv". This will print out the path of > ivtv, and all dependant modules, as they load. I finally got 0.4.0 installed... First, I found that I had to "rmmod lirc_i2c" which then enabled "rmmod ivtv" to unload the old driver. Next, I ran "find /lib/modules/`uname -r` -iname \*ivtv\* -ls" (which is slightly different than the 'find' example on the HOWTO page), and found the 0.2.0 drivers hiding-- '/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.27_FC3/updates/drivers/media/video' contained: msp3400-ivtv.ko ivtv-fb.ko tuner-ivtv.ko ivtv.ko tveeprom-ivtv.ko ...slightly different naming convention than expected. ;) I renamed all of these by appending a '.HIDE', ran "depmod -a" and then "modprobe -v ivtv" and the 0.4.0 drivers were in place! After testing, I shut the MythTV box down completely and let it rest a few minutes, then booted it up. Curiously, kudzu popped up during the boot process, saying it had found new hardware and giving me the option to either "configure" it, (temporarily) "ignore" it, or permanently "forget" about it. Hmm... as I had just installed drivers for it, I chose to temporarily ignore it (meaning that kudzu will pop up again, next time I boot the machine) and see if it works with Myth. I'm happy to report that all appears to be working fine. Interesting, though... I don't remember kudzu popping up in the past, having discovered a "video capture device".... - Brian _______________________________________________ ivtv-devel mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-devel
