Hi all,

I've been playing with my PVR-350 for the last while trying to get
tuning to work.

Currently, I'm not getting anything but 'snow' on the tuner source for
all channels. When I set the source to svideo I'm able to get a black
and white image of whatever I'm inputting into the port via svideo.

At first, tuning worked well and I was able to use ptune.pl to change
channels on the /dev/video0 device (my PVR-350 card). After getting
ivtv-fb working, I am completely unable to tune with the same card
again. I've been going back and forth verifying my settings to no
avail. I've checked over my ivtv log and all seems 'sane' and
according to the ivtv patch 'faq'
[http://www.ivtv.tv/releases/new_tuners/] my tuner is being properly
detected so I don't seem to need to patch and rebuild (this is the
same installation that I had working the first time around.)

I'm currently working from the instructions at
[http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php] and building the system on a
fedora core 2 machine.

Here are the packages I have installed that are related to my ivtv installation:

rpm -qa | grep ivtv
ivtv-firmware-1.8a-4.at
ivtv-0.2.0-69_rc3k.rhfc2.at
perl-Video-ivtv-0.13-7.rhfc2.at
ivtv-kmdl-2.6.10-1.771_FC2-0.2.0-69_rc3k.rhfc2.at
ivtvdev-0.10-2.rhfc2.at
ivtv-firmware-enc-2.04.024-4.at
ivtv-firmware-dec-2.02.023-4.at

Here are the contents of my /etc/modprobe.conf related to the ivtv modules:

# ivtv modules setup
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv
#install ivtv /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv; /sbin/modprobe ivtv-fb
alias msp3400 msp3400-ivtv
#options ivtv ivtv_debug=255 radio=0 tuner=47
#options saa7127 enable_output=1 output_select=0

I've commented out a few lines that didn't seem to help me in the
past, but I've kept them there unles I've missed something.

Finally, here are the ivtv (and ivtv-fb) logs that are output in dmesg:

I have just noticed that the first line reports a kernel taint error,
but I believe I had that earlier when the device was working for me...
I can't quite remember anymore.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
