Try /dev/video1. Everything I read everywhere says /dev/video0 is where it's
at, but I got nothing out of it and /dev/video1 is what's working for me.

Hi all,

I've got a Hauppauge PVR-150MCE card and an old RH9 install, I built the
latest 2.6.20.7 kernel (seems to already have the latest CX25840 patches),
built ivtv-0.10.1, installed the firmware, installed some hotplug scripts
to
load the firmware, and everything seems to come up just fine:

But when I "cat /dev/video0" (old-style major-minor device node, not devfs
or
udev) I get nothing.  "cat" just blocks on the device.

I was getting static at one point (when I had the kernel configuration
wrong
and didn't have the BT848 stuff enabled) but ever since then, no matter
what I
do (hard reboots, switching back to the BT848-less configuration, animal
sacrifice) I get nothing out of /dev/video0.

Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what the problem might be?  Or how
to
go about debugging it?
