Dear fellow users of IVTV, I can't believe I cannot find anything about this 'on Google' or in this list, but I ran into a problem with the framebuffer module for the Hauppauge 350. I recently cleanly installed Kubuntu Hardy Heron with KDE 3.5.x and I had no trouble getting X to run on my TV using the ivtvfb. Then I installed the KDE 4 metapackage and checked whether it still worked... but it didn't. After the login, the TV stays black (as during most of the boot sequence) and I get this weird 'double' KDE 4 desktop. It looks like the desktop background (without the kicker/bottom panel) and another, smaller desktop (including the kicker) superimposed on it. The latter one is located on the top left part of the screen and covers about 1/4th of the total screen surface. The small one is also fully functional and to some extent I can drag windows to the rest of the screen.
This happens only in KDE 4. If I select a KDE 3.5.x session at login, everything works just fine. I have been changing several settings in the system settings, particularly those in the display section, but that seems hopeless. Despite showing two desktops (in a manner of speaking), KDE seems to think there is only one. So what's up? KDE 4 and IVTVFB not getting along? Paul
