3 reasons

1) I am fairly comfortable with FC2 and have used it in a production evironment.
2) I didn't like that FC3 had an installer issue with KDE ..where you have to do a switchdesk KDE to make it work.
3) I didn't like that devices were now stored in /udev for a plug and play appearance.  I have also heard that there is issues with /udev not working properly.

I did try installing FC3 and did notice my PVR-250 was not being properly recognized and would only show up after I did a vm.min_free_kbytes=16384 to my syscntrl.conf.  Even after reboot it wouldn't show up.

I know I am probably acting paranoid but I figured FC2 has been around awhile and so has MythTV.  Thought it would be a seamless install.

Just out of curiosity... why are you avoiding FC3?

Oh forgot one thing... this is a PVR-250.

I am currently installing FC2 and MythTV according to Jarod's HOW-TO
guide.  I have reached a point after installing the 2.6.10-1.770_FC2
kernel, Nvidia kmdl and now trying to install ivtv.

I have ran the following commands with no problems:

#apt-get install ivtv-firmware
#apt-get install ivtv-kmdl-2.6.10-1.770_FC2

When I go to run this command I get the following dependency error:
# apt-get install ivtv
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 ivtv: Depends: ivtv-kmdl-1:0.2.0-66_rc3i.rhfc2.at but it is not
installable
E: Broken packages

Can anyone shed some light on how to fix this so I can get it to
install ivtv?

Thanks
