Here is an interesting thing and I don't know what is the root cause. I have had this card for over a year and it worked on an older gentoo install. I updated the box to 2006.1 , 2.6.17 kernel and 0.7 ivtv When booting, ivtv hangs on ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw firmware (262144 bytes)
But... If I avoid ivtv from being loaded at boot, I can modprobe ivtv it seems to work..

Is there anybody who might know how to fix it? I was looking at commenting out the udev.rules lines dealing with v4l thanks _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list ivtv-users@ivtvdriver.org http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
