Hans,

If I reinstall 0.4.0, rmmod ivtv, modprobe ivtv it will load successfully and I
can view tv.

Moving to 0.4.1/2 performing the same operations, I get the message about the
firmware not being able to load.

No changes to the firmware files, no other changes just ivtv.

firmware for 0.4.0 is in /lib/modules/, a ls -l gives the following:

drwxr-xr-x  2 root root   4096 2006-01-01 11:48 2.6.12
drwxr-xr-x  7 root root   4096 2006-01-01 13:38 2.6.12-10-amd64-generic
drwxr-xr-x  6 root root   4096 2005-12-31 12:27 2.6.12-9-amd64-generic
-r--r--r--  1 root src   14264 2005-01-07 15:42 HcwMakoA.ROM
-r--r--r--  1 root src  376836 2005-01-17 14:16 ivtv-fw-enc.bin
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 155648 2006-01-01 11:35 ivtv_init_mpeg.bin

the exact same firmware ( renamed for use with 0.4.1/0.4.2) is in
/lib/hotplug/firmware, a ls -l gives the following:

-r--r--r--  1 root src  376836 2005-01-17 14:16 v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 155648 2006-01-01 11:47 v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg
-r--r--r--  1 root src   14264 2005-01-07 15:42 v4l-cx25840.fw

md5's follow: 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lib/hotplug/firmware$ md5sum v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw
5f5fa240ada73c3565f5f7de4c7b5138  v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lib/modules$ md5sum ivtv-fw-enc.bin
5f5fa240ada73c3565f5f7de4c7b5138  ivtv-fw-enc.bin

Exactly the same, and the correct checksums - as the firmware works for 0.4.0
and not 0.4.1/2 I do not believe the problem to be firmware releated.

Could this have something to do with the amd64 perhaps?

Thanks,

Michael
