I'm currently running 2.6.14-1.1696_FC5 (rebuilt version of the FC5T1 
kernel, since I need the building gcc version to match the one used to 
build  ivtv, and I stupidly removed 2.6.14-1.1760_FC5 before noticing it 
was the last ivtv-friendly rawhide kernel)

The firmware files should not matter - I've tested two different 
firwmare versions, and Red Hat has been updating gcc aggressively in 
rawhide. The only thing that changes between working and non-working 
setups is the kernel version.

Right now I'm using (pvr 150 22_22292 driver)
d85cb08382395390dc95ac6ebc2205f9 */lib/firmware/v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw
a6f6a90a3be338cdb89d59e835798408 */lib/firmware/v4l-cx25840.fw

Before I used  (pvr 150 2_23258 driver)
5f5fa240ada73c3565f5f7de4c7b5138 */lib/firmware/v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw
e8e7153dbf12f90d252b8df2966bc183 */lib/firmware/v4l-cx25840.fw

I'm only using the svideo input, the htpc is sitting behind a digital 
cable box.

Dave Jones releases new kernel packages almost daily, today's is 
2.6.14-1.1777_FC5 so I'll test it later. But if its like the 5-6 last 
ones it won't work at all with ivtv.
