I am trying to install a PVR-350 on a FC8 box. I have done the following steps: # yum -y install ivtv-firmware # yum -y install ivtv-kmdl-$KVER # yum -y install ivtv_xdriver video4linux-kmdl-$KVER And everything went smoothly, to the best that I can tell. When I go to try and start it: # /sbin/depmod -a # /sbin/modprobe ivtv
You did not specify which repository you're pulling the packages from. Generally, with properly built packages, you do not need to run depmod, the package installation script should take care of it already.
I get the following: WARNING: Error inserting tveeprom (/lib/modules/2.6.24.7-92.fc8/updates/drivers/media/video/tveeprom.ko): Invalid module format WARNING: Error inserting v4l1_compat
This usually means that the kernel modules were built for a different kernel version than the one you're running.
This should not happen if yum is set up correctly. So, either the packages are bad in whatever repository you're pulling this from, or you're pointing yum to a wrong repository. Another possibility is that you're not running the stock Fedora 8 kernel, that you've built your own custom kernel and installed it.
You need to provide more information on how your system is set up, and which repositories you're pulling these packages from.
