Hello. I have had a MythTV setup working for several years. It has a PVR-350 and when it's in use I have xorg.conf set to use its video out as the system monitor. One day I turned it on and it had stopped working (black screen on video out). When I switched xorg.conf to use the onboard VGA as the display, everything worked fine. I also tested the video out on the PVR-350 (via /sbin/modprobe saa7127 test_image=1) and that is working. So I am guessing something has gone south with IVTV, though this is odd because I have not made any config changes in the system.
I have not upgraded to the latest IVTV drivers because my Fedora Core 6 is so old you can't use yum to do updates anymore. The relevant dmesg dump is below. /var/log/messages is giving some suspicious looking output, also below. Can anyone spot an obvious problem that is fixable here, or should I just wipe the drive, upgrade the core, and start over with a fresh install of MythTV and the latest drivers?
