Thanks Axel, and be assured that I appreciate everything you folks do.
It sure looks like there are parts of the FC5 release that didn't go so
smoothly.  In about 5 minutes a recording will finish and I'll sync up
with your repository.  I try not to load the system too much (front and
back end running on this one machine) since sometimes I get data
corruption in the mp2 stream.  I'm not too certain the exact sequence of
events and I think I saw there's an open bug for this.

In any case, with the help I was able to get a working system so
whenever ivtv is ready from atrpms I'll be happy and meanwhile I'll just
be patient.  :)
