Could you also try: rmmod ivtv modprobe ivtv And see if the second IVTV entry in dmesg loads the firmware AOK. If so, you need to adjust which loads first, as ivtv is loading before hotplug (So it can't load the firmware using hotplug). -- Robert "Anaerin" Johnston _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
