Hi all,

I have been a MythTV fanatic since I first built my Fedora Core 4
system with a PVR-350 card using Jarod Wilson's instructions some
months ago. Later I added a PVR-150 card, which was a bit tricky
because  I couldn't get the two cards to be recording at the same time
(it seems the second would never start). Eventually I figured out the
solution to this problem using the "tuner=" ivtv option in
modprobe.conf (see below) and/or by powering off the system when
necessary rather than just rebooting. I was happy, everything was
running great, until I got the idea to upgrade (fresh install,
actually) Fedora Core 6. Now I can't get the second card to record
(again!), even after a shutdown and poweroff, and I can hear sound
when I play recordings in MythTV but I can only see a black box. I
have found what I hoped was a solution for the "no video" problem (see
modprobe.conf) but it doesn't seem to work for me. Any help would be
appreciated, as I have been trying to recover for a week now and I am
kicking myself for breaking a working system in order to upgrade! If
not for me, please help my wife and young children.   ;-)

One thing I did notice but I am not sure how to correct: I have a
framebuffer /dev/fb0, and /dev/fb linked to it, but no /dev/fb1 for
the second card. Is that OK? I can't remember anymore from my previous
setup.

Thanks in advance,

Fred
