I'm trying to use Jarod's guide to set up my PVR350 under FC3 - kernel 2.6.10-1.770_FC3smp. I get to the point where he suggests ensuring your video devices exist by running "ll /dev/video?". When I do, I get the error "ls: /dev/video?: No such file or directory".
After quite a bit of fruitless searching, I did find one message here in the mailing list (http://www.poptix.net/ivtv/current/msg00386.html) where a poster states to a user with a similar problem.: "FC3 uses udev for devices. So the /dev/videox is only created when a driver needs one. You also need a good udev config file. I believe the default FC3 install supports /dev/videox devices. But as reported earlier your modules do not load so the /dev/video0 device is never created." I'm trying to narrow down my problem. Being a linux noob doesn't help. Does ivtv have to load under FC3 before the /dev/videoX device is created? If so, I think ivtv is running for me b/c I see it under lsmod (I also see "i2c_algo_bit" and "video dev" which state they're being used by ivtv), so I'm wondering why I don't have /dev/video. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
