Ignore the previous message. After doing so many 'apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade' operations, I think it's starting to sink in that they sometimes are useful in solving problems. :)

Hopefully this was just a small hiccup on the way to getting this baby working. :) cheers jon On 4/23/05, Jon Somodi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ok, I am definitely missing something big. > > There isn't even a "/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.14_FC3/ivtv" path in the system. > ??? > > I renamed the ivtv.ko file as you suggested Rick, but when I run the > modprobe command, I get > > FATAL: Could not open > '/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.14_FC3/updates/drivers/media/video/ivtv.ko': No > such file or directory > > And the rmmod command did nothing but complain that it couldn't find > process in the /proc/modules directory. > > When I ran the installation on the IVTV package, I just plainly did > "yum install ivtv".
