Hello, I'm having a problem getting my Hauppague PVR-250 card to work. Admittedly I haven't used the card for a very long time, and it sat in a box for about a year, but it still seems to be recognized fine by the system.
lspci -v output:

05:06.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC15 MPEG-2 Eoder (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV PVR-250
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 58

Anyway I am running Gentoo on an AMD64 processor with a 2.6.12 kernel.

Here is the dmesg output from a modprobe ivtv.

The confusing bit to me is the "unable to open firmware" bit. Doing a search for similar problems most people seem to actually have the name of the firmware file that ivtv is unable to load...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Scott
