[ivtv-users] SUSE 10.1 PVR-150 Problem

Wed, 16 Aug 2006 13:42:12 -0700

Hello,
 
I am a Linux n00b and am attempting to load MythTV on SUSE 10.1 using a PVR-150. 
 
The problem I am having is that I am unable to get ivtv to work.  I believe my kernel is 2.6.16 and so I am using the ivtv 0.6.3 driver.
 
According to the instructions (http://www.ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Howto ) I have performed these steps as well as installed the firmware. 
What are the proper paths for which the driver and the firmware should reside?  The instructions suggest finding a “firmware.agent” file that should point to the firmware hotplug path.  However, I am unable to locate said file within my SUSE 10.1 installation.
 
Also, what are the file names that should be modified to insert:
 
“alias char-major-81 videodev”
“alias char-major-81-0 ivtv”
 
Is the /etc/modules.conf file the correct one?  
 
How about the file that a user must just insert  “ivtv”. 
 
Every time I execute “modprobe ivtv” I get a Fatal error, ivtv not found.  
This is even after the recommended reboot of the system.
 
Thanks in advance for your help.
