it's a great howto but I had a similar complaint, not all messages in that howto are current,
check here for help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_Edgy_hardware_pvr-350_TV-out#preview the relevant section is: To find out what frame buffer your TV-out is on: cat /proc/fb You will get something like: 0 cx23415 TV out The first 'section' on the line tells you what you need to know. (Here we are interested in the '0') In this case it shows that we have /dev/fb0. If you have something like: 1 cx23415 TV out then you would have have /dev/fb1. Alternative method Run: cat /var/log/messages |grep "TV out" You should see something like: ... kernel: [...] '''fb0''': iTVC15 TV out frame buffer device - then you would have have /dev/fb0. - On 5/9/07, John G <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I've been using Jarod Wilson's excellent guide to setting up Mythtv on Fedora (http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php) and everything went well until I got to the section regarding setting up the PVR-350 TV out. When I try to see what frame-buffer device that ivtv-fb grabbed, using 'cat /var/log/messages |grep "iTVC15 TV out" ', I get no output; apparently it isn't grabbing the frame-buffer device. Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing/doing wrong?
