Greetings,
I am constructing a MythTV DVR with Fedora Core 4 and having problems
configuring xorg.conf if that is the issue.
For the most part I have everything setup as stated in Jarods Tutorial:
http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php#video
I have onboard video that was originally probed in the xorg.conf as "vesa"
and have changed it since then to the SIS driver as recommended in the
tutorial.
I have been able to:
1. bring in video using cat /dev/video > /tmp/test.mpg
2. watch the recording on the TV using "cat /tmp/test.mpg > /dev/video16"
3. watch live tv using this script:
#!/sbin/sh
/usr/bin/ivtvfbctl /dev/fb1 -noglobalalpha -localalpha
dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16 bs=64k
ivtv-tune -c 23
4. run X without any ivtv statements in the xconf.org file.
But, now that I am adding in the ivtv information in the xorg.conf file, I am
receiving this error at startup now and can't figure it out:
Attached is also my xorg.conf file.
