After working on this for awhile, I finally figured it out. This is great, a thread consisting of only my postings! :)
John McCarthy, if you read this, this solved my xine problems. Thanks for your help. The problem was that I was merely extracting the xorg source. I needed to compile the source too, then the xdriver would compile. In case anyone comes across this in the distant and misty future, here's what worked for me on my CentOS 4 (RHEL 4) x86_64 system. I'm using the ivtv_xdriver_0.10.6 source. 1. Install xorg-x11-6.8.2-1.EL.13.20.src.rpm. This installs in the usual places under /usr/src/redhat. 2. cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/ 3. rpmbuild -bc xorg-x11.spec -- This took a good half hour on my 2.8Ghz P4-521. This patches and compiles but does not install the source. I wonder if 'rpmbuild -bp' would be enough for this to work? 4. Cd to wherever you have the xdriver source. Cd all the way down that long path like the HowTo says. 5. xmkmf /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/xorg-x11-6.8.2/xc 6. make 7. cp ivtvdev_drv.o /usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/drivers 8. Restart X Xine now works for me with the xv driver. The HowTo mentions making changes to ivtvhw.c. I did *not* have to make any changes to that file. The source compiled as is.
