See the (very recent) post on the ivtv mailinglist with the subject "Can not find ivtvfbctl & no video output from my hauppauge 350 card" All the required work is already done, but you need to either compile MythTV for yourself, either from SVN (as I am doing) or from 0.2?-fixes and apply a patch. Hope this helps... Regards, Stanley. _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
