Thanks Axel

I gave this a try removing ivtv-kmdl and running with video4linux-kmdl as you suggested but video4linux 20070302 does not seem to contain the ivtv-fb module so I can no longer run x on the PVR350

The ivtv-kmdl-2.6.19-1.2911.6.4.fc6 which does contain ivtv-fb does not live happily together with video4linux 20070302 as described previously.

I therefore conclude there is currently no longer a way to run the ivtv framebuffer on Fedora Core 6 with the 2.6.19-1.2911.6.4 kernel and the atrpms package - is this correct?

Looks like it.  But, I'm sure that will be fixed soon.

Myself, personally, I took a completely different solution to the FC6 quagmire. I don't bother building the entire video4linux package. I only need the saa7127 driver, so why do I need to build all of the other stuff?

I apply a small patch to video4linux's configuration scripts so that it ends up building only the saa7127 module. And, I shove the whole thing into the ivtv kernel module package, so that it contains all the regular ivtv modules, plus saa7127.

Problem solved.
