> 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
