Hi Gabe,
Oh, here's a question I can help with. Found this one out mostly
by mistake and almost by accident. Note my experience is only just
recent (ie: last week) with ivtv2.0, so your experience may vary.
**DON'T BELIEVE ANY FAQ THAT TELLS YOU TO INSERT HEX VALUES FOR BusID,
**AND NEVER PREFIX IT WITH 0x. USE DECIMAL VALUES.
Turns out they're all wrong. The ivtvdev driver requires *DECIMAL*
values or it get's entirely confused and can't find the device. More
than likely what you need is:
BusID "0:09:0"
lspci on my box (pvr350) reports: 00:0d.0
which means my BusID for the xorg.conf is:
BusID "0:13:0"
Strange that the FAQs and install docs tell you "put what lspci
says here", but what lspci says (ie: 00:0d.0) looks very different
from what I really needed (0:13:0). Both base and format are different.
I'm a pretty technical guy and that one threw me forever. <grin>
Regards,
james

I am not sure what lspci is returning for your busid, but if that is
what it is you should change the BusID line to:
BusID "00:00:09"
I think. Report what lspci says the busid is
