I (finally) got everything (except lirc) working so i thought i'd report what i did.  To fix the tuner type not set, all i did was add the line

option ivtv tuner=50

to my /etc/modules.conf

and now video works like a champ.  Thanks to Hans for his suggestions.

thanks,
tom

The saga continues. . . As you'll recall, my ivtv drivers were freezing when the channel/input was being changed while the video stream was being read (ie. cat /dev/video0 > /dev/null).  I decided to build my own 2.6.16.20 kernel (which was a minor nightmare since i kept forgeting to include the conexiant drivers for the encoder chip)   this was rather poorly documented by the HOWTO and READMEs in the 0.6 ivtv version.  Anywho, i installed 0.6, and am now getting the dreaded:

tuner 0-0061: tuner type not set

Both the input and channel can now be changed during a stream, but now i can't see any stations.  It's classic white noise (video and audio).  I did install Windoze and verified that the card is functioning properly there (which it is.)  I feel the answer's within sight, but it's not quite there yet.  Is it possible there's another kernel driver that i need that isn't getting loaded?
