I used to have this problem but it went away last time I updated the driver.
This is what I did in the mean time to get it to work: rmmod ivtv before=`cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug` echo /sbin/hotplug > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug modprobe ivtv echo $before > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug - Haavar On Dec 6, 2006, at 7:31 AM, HP CiD wrote: > hi :) > i have installed (emerged) ivtv-0.8.1-r1 in gentoo under the 2.6.18- > gentoo-r3 kernel. > its installed without problems and also loading with "modprobe > ivtv" works, but when i start ivtvctl --version it only comes: > Failed to open /dev/video0: No such device > > this modules are loaded: > ivtv 194832 0 > firmware_class 11456 1 ivtv > cx2341x 11844 1 ivtv > tveeprom 16080 1 ivtv > videodev 27136 1 ivtv > v4l1_compat 15044 2 ivtv,videodev > v4l2_common 22976 3 ivtv,cx2341x,videodev > > in dmesg i found that problem: > Linux video capture interface: v2.00 > ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== > ivtv: version 0.8.1 (tagged release) loading > ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.18-gentoo-r3 SMP preempt mod_unload K7 > gcc-3.3 > ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info between > ivtv: the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines, along with > ivtv: any module options, when mailing the ivtv-users mailinglist. > ivtv0: Autodetected Hauppauge card (cx23415 based) > ivtv0: unable to open firmware v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw (must be 262144 > bytes) > ivtv0: did you put the firmware in the hotplug firmware directory? > ivtv0 warning: failed loading encoder firmware > ivtv0 warning: Error loading firmware -3! > ivtv0: Error -3 initializing firmware. > Trying to free already-free IRQ 11 > ivtv0: Error -12 on initialization > ivtv: probe of 0000:00:11.0 failed with error -12 > ivtv: ==================== END INIT IVTV ==================== > > the firmware files are in /lib/firmware: > ls -la /lib/firmware/ > total 700 > drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 280 Dec 6 15:58 . > drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 3928 Dec 5 15:37 .. > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 262144 Dec 6 15:58 v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 262144 Dec 6 15:58 v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 155648 Dec 6 15:58 v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16382 Dec 6 15:58 v4l-cx25840.fw > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Dec 6 15:58 v4l-pvrusb2-24xxx-01.fw > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Dec 6 15:58 v4l-pvrusb2-29xxx-01.fw > > also the md5sum are correct: > md5sum /lib/firmware/v4l-* > 305dba74bbe5905447add8883f3ecb68 /lib/firmware/v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw > d85cb08382395390dc95ac6ebc2205f9 /lib/firmware/v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw > 0661f8b2693fe3123e6234557353eacc /lib/firmware/v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg > 99836e41ccb28c7b373e87686f93712a /lib/firmware/v4l-cx25840.fw > ffed594f0edea15de8c19cfd13bc4adf /lib/firmware/v4l- > pvrusb2-24xxx-01.fw > 3b7288416144467369ed2b5b10cf931d /lib/firmware/v4l- > pvrusb2-29xxx-01.fw > > i have tried another kernelversion (linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r9) and > ivtv-0.7.2.ebuild but there is the same problem. > > what can i do to get it loaded? > > > -- > "Ein Herz für Kinder" - Ihre Spende hilft!
