Oh.. I thought I did... Anyways... Since that post I have updated my kernel to 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4 and re-install the ivtv-firmware. Everything is good regarding loading all the firmware.
I still have the issue of not being able to open the video0 device, but thats another topic. I noticed in the IVTV CVS tree Chris Gackstatter wrote: >Mike > >Please post this comment to the user group. Right now I am not getting a >lot of response to my posting.
