> Well, as much as I appreciate the effort everyone
 has put into the
 HowTo's There has been a major change in going to
 R5A15 from the R4
 versions. The current HowTo's use the older syntax
 and the new
 software complains about the befores and afters and
 the
 post-installs. I was able to finally piece together
 my system from
 several topics and couldn't get the final piece to
 get past the
 purple and green screen and "no device". I finally
 found the pvr.pl
 script and ran that, which them put the old style
 format back into
 ivtv and left me with an XF86Config-4 with no device
 and no link for
 the Hex from lspci -v (all zeros) and so when I put
 my old ivtv and
 XF86Config-4 from the backups (gdm.conf was the
 same) and rebooted,
 it actually came up and is running. So I was close,
 but there was no
 place along the way that had the complete solution.
 I will try to
 document the various file changes but pvr.pl did
 something I hadn't
 so I'll have to look at it and see what I missed.

 As I said, I appreciate the work people have done to
 get the system
 up, but we need to indicate which version things are
 done with so we
 can figure out which set to work from


I hate to point this out but the guide this thread is
referring to is titled "Fedora Myth(TV)ology::HOWTO".
It appears that you are using Knoppmyth.  Now I have
used Jarod's guide several times, most recently with
FedoraCore 3 but I found it useful even when
installing myth on slackware.  Some things didn't
apply to slackware but I didn't feel the need to
criticize Jarod simply because I chose a different
distro than he.

and keep in mind that I'm not the original poster, just someone else
that's had trouble using all the guides that have been pointed out in
all the various archived threads. This is a volatile section since
PVR-350 video out is really new
