Keith,
With the help of Tyler, I figured out what my problem was. Before
installing this card, I had a "WinTV Go" card installed, and in order to
use that I compiled a tuner directly into the kernel. I wasn't aware
that the new tuners would conflict with the old tuners, so I never
thought to remove it.Once that was removed everything worked perfectly.
As for the "extra" directory, I have no idea. When I ran a "make
install" that's where everything went. I never thought it was odd
until you said something about it, but after checking through the
makefiles I guess your right. I found no reference to an 'extra'
directory. I'm assuming that the version of 'install' must create that
under certain conditions.
Thanks for the response,
- Robert Casey

Hey all,
I've seen many postings with problems similar to mine, but the
solutions never seemed to work for me. I'm running Debian Testing
with kernel 2.6.8 on an AMD Athlon XP3000. I am unable to get any
sort of signal (other than static) out of my card. When loading the
ivtv module I get the messages "ivtv0: Unreasonably low latency
timer, setting to 64 (was 32)", and "tuner type not set" (full IVTV
dmesg listing below). I've tried tweaking all sorts of setting
under /etc/modutils/ivtv but the results are always the same. I
thought maybe all I needed to do was `modprobe tuner` (I made sure
that /lib/modules/2.6.8/extra/tuner.ko was the only tuner module)
but that caused a segfault. I've been working on this for a few days
now, and have come up with nothing -- any ideas?
Well, the short answer is that modprobing tuner shouldn't cause a
segfault. Why the "extra" directory? I thought ivtv always
installed into an "ivtv" directory? Some Debian thing?
ivtv0: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=tda9887, addr=43]
tveeprom: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones
tveeprom: Second (radio) tuner idx 101
tveeprom: ivtv version
tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 23552, rev = D592, serial# = 8221235
tveeprom: tuner = Philips FQ1236A MK4 (idx = 92, type = 57)
tveeprom figures out your card and tuner just fine.
tuner: tuner type not set
But tuner module doesn't like it.
