Hah, see? I told I was a noob. Anyway, I've figured out that I need to load the *.ko modules instead of *.o module because I'm running a 2.6 kernel as opposed to 2.4. *bonk* Of course now I can't remove the ivtv module because it's used by ivtv-fb and vice versa. How do I get around this dependancy? -Tim ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ ivtv-devel mailing list ivtv-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ivtv-devel
