 alias usb-controller ehci-hcd

 # ivtv modules setup
 alias char-major-81 videodev
 alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
 alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv
 alias msp3400 msp3400-ivtv
 
 install ohci1394 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ohci1394;
 /sbin/modprobe raw1394
 

Only to say me too. With the added point that if I modprobe ivtv in
rc.local, then I have to restart mythbackend before I can watch live
tv. Otherwise I get about 3 seconds of video before it freezes and
eventually times out. I guess recordings will fail in a similar
manner, but at the moment I use live tv as a test after a reboot. This
is with ivtv 3.4m from atrpms.

So I feel i'm getting closer.  At least I know that the hardware works.

What I don't understand is why modprobe.conf fails to load the ivtv and
liric drivers.  Does it do anything at all.  Or How do I force
modprobe.conf to load.

It looks as though my next challenge is getting this socket to bind and
I truly am clueless on that one.  As far as I can tell, all the security
is off and the ip is set correctly.

Any thoughts. Ed

If the driver's not loaded or mysql is not loaded or mysql is not
accepting connections then possibly this sort of thing could happen.
The solution to this sort of thing is probably distro dependent.

Good luck,

A bind failure results from the port already being in use.  Do
a netstat -a -n --tcp | grep 6543 and see if you get a hit that
shows LISTEN.  If so, you've got something running that is
already listening on the port.  There is a command that you can
use to find out what program is using it but I don't recall off
hand what it is.
