Hi! I posted a message the other day with some problems with ivtv and firmware unresponsive. Well, I wiped my system and decided to put Ubuntu Feisty Fawn on. Yeah, I know it's beta, but I was having a hell of a time trying to get Dapper and Edgy to work with my cards.
So now, I'm running 2.6.20-6-generic kernel and everything seems to be recognized, but I still get the errors. As far as I know, the kernel is built with ivtv, so I didn't have to install it. But why is it that I have so many headaches trying to get this firmware unresponsive message to go away!?! Argh. Oh well, there are many smart people out there and I'm sure one of them will be nice enough to help. :) Here is the dmesg root@:/usr/src/homemade/mythtv# dmesg | grep -i ivtv [ 27.015057] ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== [ 27.015062] ivtv: version 0.9.1 (tagged release) loading [ 27.015064] ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.20-6-generic SMP mod_unload [ 27.015066] ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info between [ 27.015067] ivtv: the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines, along with [ 27.015069] ivtv: any module options, when mailing the ivtv-users mailinglist.
