What he was telling you how to do is enable your kernel to build the
msp3400 as part of the kernel. After that you would build the kernel
from scratch. This is not something for people without lots of Linux
experience.

And you don't have to do it. From your posts, it appears your kernel
does have a valid msp3400.ko file that should be loading. Make sure
it is named with its original name and then try the following :
/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/modinfo msp3400

The modinfo command should tell you about the msp3400 module, if its
in the right place. If it does find it, then you should be able to
modprobe ivtv.

Hey Keith,

Thanks for the suggestions.  I did what you suggested and was about to claim 
"no joy" when I decided to reboot.  Now I have sound on both recordings and 
live TV!!  WoooHooo!!  As you would imagine I did a modprobe ivtv many times 
before.  I am confused as to what fixed the problem I was having.  Was it 
the modinfo msp3400 or just renaming the file and then doing the modprobe 
ivtv again?  Thanks again for the help.  I have seen a lot of people having 
this trouble and wanted them to have a definitive answer in this chain if 
possible.

Jimbo
