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.
Bye
Rik

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.
I booted with my old kernel and copied the ivtv stuff from dmesg into a
file. Here it is:
