RE: [gentoo-user] OT - Need help getting MythTV to work withnew(er) kernel
Hi, In kernel config (at least in 2.6.15) there is an option to support the Philips SAA7115. That's the point where you get you're first error message. I only got the ivtv driver to work ok in 2.6.15 after enabling the SAA7115 support. (I do not have my linux box at hand now so I cannot exactly tell you were the option is in the kernel config but it is somewhere like Device drivers multimedia shit v4L extra or additonell drivers or so. There you have to options and when you choose for help (in make menuconfig) you will see the supp. For SAA7115 mentioned). If you cannot find let me know I'll take a look tonight. Sorry, when I mentioned XX.XXX in the ivtv command I meant : replace this by an actual frequency where there is a tv station.

RE: [gentoo-user] OT - Need help getting MythTV to work with new(er) kernel
Hi, If you check dmesg, is everything OK loading ivtv? You should see the ivtv messages between two lines. Using diff to compare the dmesg output for different kernels has led me to getting things to work. When you do a ivtv-tune -f xxx.xx to set frequency. After that cat /dev/video0 test.mpg and you playback test.mpg is that OK (or you do mplayer /dev/video0) -Original Message- From: Michael Sullivan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 13, 2006 7:39 PM To: gentoo-user Subject: [gentoo-user] OT - Need help getting MythTV to work with new(er) kernel I had MythTV working perfectly with linux-2.6.14-gentoo-r5. I've tried to upgrade to linux-2.6.15-gentoo-r1 using genkernel and basing the newer kernel's configuration off of the older one. I've booted with the new kernel, remerged ivtv and rebooted again with the new kernel, but still I cannot watch LiveTV in mythfrontend. Here's the output of mythbackend.log: camille ~ # cat /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log Starting up as the master server. It is current (I stopped mythbackend, deleted the old mythbackend.log, restarted syslog-ng and then mythbackend.) When I start mythfrontend and ask to watch LiveTV, all I see is the blank screen.
