I finally got mythtv to work using Fedora Core 4, kernel
2.6.12-1.1398_FC4-i686, and used yum to install the rest. I wanted to
upgrade to a "stock" 2.6.12.5 kernel which compiled just fine. However,
the module for ivtv was installed under the old kernel, and is not found
by modprobe (understandable). So I tryed to reinstall ivtv using yum,
and of course, it says the latest version is already installed. I then
downloaded the ivtv source, and followed the instructions for compiling
the module. Following the instructions, I cd'd into the driver directory
and executed make. Here is the output.
make CONFIG_VIDEO_IVTV=m -C /lib/modules/2.6.12.5/build
M=/usr/src/ivtv-0.2.0-rc3j/driver modules

The docs in the driver tarball about saa7115 states "This module
controls the Philips SAA7115 video decoder driver and is responsible for
the video decoding".
My question is, do I in fact need this module, and is there a patch or
workaround to fix it? By the way, I am using a hauppage pvr-350. Any
advice or direction is appreciated.
