Hello,

I can't get any output from cat /dev/video0.  It returns a zero length file.

I don't know what else to do.  Been searching the web for nearly 3 hours 
now and trying different things.  I have a PVR-350.  Here are the System 
Specs:

P4 - 2.4ghz
768mb of RAM
AOPEN AX45-V (SIS 961 chipset) Motherboard
Nvidia MX440 Video Card
PVR-350

I installed Fedora Core 4 and followed the "HowTo" from here:  
http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php

I installed the ATRPMs YUM Repository and did the Following:

yum update  (Now running kernel 2.6.15-1.1833_FC4)
reboot
yum install ivtv ivtv-firmware ivtv-firmware-audio 
ivtv-kmdl-2.6.15-1.1833_FC4

It installed successfully, and I rebooted just to be safe.  Now here is 
my ivtv output from dmesg:

I did update the Encoder / Decoder firmware manually just in case that 
was it...  But it didn't help.

Here is /etc/modprobe.conf
----------------

options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; 
}; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0

lsmod returns the following:

Now, I find it very strange to see a module called i2c_sis96x.  I have 
no other tuner card in this system.  Just the PVR-350.  I have no clue 
why it would be loading that module.  (Something with the Motherboard 
chipset?)  So I don't know if that is my problem or not.  I have tried 
formatting my system twice just in case I was doing something wrong with 
the setup.  Anyone have any ideas what I can try to resolve this?

Thanks in Advance,
Nate Davis
