Re: [mythtv-users] Gentoo + Mythtv + Fusion Plus HDTV + Nvidia
Hi Kevin. You might like to check out this guide : http://www.users.on.net/~jani/dvico-mythtv.html#toc I'm not sure support for the card is built into the kernel yet, so that guide might be better for you. good luck! One thing I noticed is that in your lsmod, there were no video decoder modules in it (e.g. bt848)... I'd presume you need that module loading because the dvb hardware is accessed through the video decoder. You probably need to enable i2c bit-banging and i2c-algo-bit if they're not already done.

I tried running coldplug as default rebooted my machine I run mythsetup I get when selecting dvb Card name: could not open card #0 Card Type: No such device or address edit rules for udev? what do you mean?

Kevin Saenz wrote: edit rules for udev? what do you mean? Thanks For some reason unknown to me, the udev er.. thingy that creates the devices tree under /dev doesn't quite work properly for dvb devices. In kernel 2.6.10 I still used devfs, but I took the plunge did away with the deprecated system (not sure I had a choice exactly). I had the same problem you're having when I built a new system to upgrade the backend using kernel 2.6.12.whatever I searched on google for ages saw something about the udev rules. I had a look at the rules config file saw pretty scary stuff (to my eyes anyway). It was then I tried coldplug hotplug. I'm not sure hotplug made a difference, but you can try it. Here's the result of me doing rc-update -s (with the non-running services deleted to save space). alsasound | default apache2 | default bootmisc | boot checkfs | boot checkroot | boot clock | boot coldplug | default consolefont | boot dhcp | default domainname | default famd | default fetchmail | hostname | boot hotplug | default in.tftpd | default keymaps | boot local | default nonetwork localmount | boot metalog | default modules | boot mysql | default mythbackend | default net.eth0 | default net.lo | boot netmount | default ntp-client | default ntpd | default rmnologin | boot samba | default sendmail | serial | boot sshd | default urandom | boot vixie-cron | default webmin | default xdm | default This is from using a stage3 install mind you... Oh - and check that the kernel modules for the DVB card are being loaded at boot time (i.e. that they're in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6) BEFORE mythbackend starts up - that can cause problems too. What I always recommend you do is get the hardware working and verify it's working BEFORE even going into mythtv. That way you know which is to blame (and it's never myth).

Hi all, I have finally made the move from mandrake10.0 and Mythtv 0.15, to Gentoo ( I have built a couple of laptops and a server.) I am installing Gentoo 2005.1 I am building against 2.6.12 kernel. When I run dmesg I get Linux video capture interface: v1.00 bttv: driver version 0.9.15 loaded bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).

To me it appears that the kernel revision I have has changed the dvb location from /dev/dvb/frontend0 to /dev/dvb.frontend. Is there a work around to get my capture card working under mythtv?
