lirc is pulling in cx88xx, and doesn't seem to work without it on 2.6.12*FC3 kernels for me with a pvr350. Using the kernel tveeprom allows this to happen without issue. bttv used to get pulled in for me at some point too, but it doesn't cause any problems. > Let me clarify this a little.

I'm pretty sure that's only true for the 0.2 versions NOT the 0.3.8 / now 0.4 versions (the default) from atrpms, thus him getting the errors. > > But, the kernel version of bttv and cx88xx are not compatible with > the ivtv version of tveeprom.

It will cause lirc not to work on 0.3.* / 2.6.12*FC3 with a pvr350 at least for me. > > A lot of people can use the kernel versions of tuner and tveeprom.
