Oh joy! It's running!

My mistake was that when compiling the ivtv sources, the resulting files were put in the "...mdkcustom" directory. As pr. wiki-instructions (and 'http://www.byopvr.com/Sections+index-req-viewarticle-artid-13-page-1.html') I did:

1.
"Edit /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h and remove 'custom' from the end of the UTS_RELEASE version number
Also edit /usr/src/linux/Makefile and remove 'custom' from the end of the EXTRAVERSION version number"
(So that the modules get placed in the correct directory)



2. Removed any old modules:

find /lib -name "*ivtv*"
rm -rf /lib/modules/2.6.8.1-12mdk/kernel/3rdparty/ivtv
find /lib -name "msp3400*"
rm /lib/modules/2.6.8.1-12mdk/kernel/drivers/media/video/msp3400.ko.gz


3. cd ivtv-0.3.2.d cp utils/videodev2.h driver/videodev2.h (not sure this is needed...) cd driver make all install

4.
cd ../utils
cp '/mnt/CDROM/WinTV-PVR-150MCE_2.0.18.22280 WHQL Signed/HcwMakoA.ROM' /lib/modules/.
./ivtvfwextract.pl pvr48wdm_1.8.22037.exe


5.
And finally:

modprobe tveeprom
sleep 1
modprobe videodev
sleep 1
modprobe cx25840 i2c_enable=1
sleep 1
modprobe tuner
sleep 1
modprobe wm8775
sleep 1
modprobe ivtv ivtv_std=2 tuner=52



Hah! There!

"cat /dev/video >> test.mpg" now fills the file :-)


Thanks to all for your help!!



Cheers,

Hi Tim,

I'm running 2.6 kernel. From what I understand the 4KSTACKS issue diesn't apply to 2.6 kernels.

Do you have a 4k stacks kernel?

He, he - I now got the files in place, have compiled and installed the driver...and issues a 'modprobe ivtv'. Machine freezes...

mandrake 10.1, ivtv 0.3.2d, PVR150

I'm calling it a night. If anybody has any pointers I'd be very happy. Not sure how I go about debugging from here.


Cheers,

Thanks for the link - cannot download yet (still waiting...) But it'll
probably eventually get there.
This will work with the 150 card as well as the 250/350?



Yes.
