Hi Dave, Don't know why, but here's one general module loading reference I noticed in the latest LFS manual: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter08/kernel.html Andrew. -- If you don't know what to do, do something. ___ mythtv-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Why wouldn't they be loading? Isn't including them in modprobe.conf supposed to load them? It has to do with the switch to udev for handling device creation. I'm not sure myself how to get udev to automatically load devices properly like it did in FC2 and previous versions of FC, but for now I've added the appropriate modprobe lines to the /etc/init.d/ scripts for lircd and mythbackend under the start section to load lirc modules and ivtv modules respectively.

Re: [mythtv-users] No video devices in /dev
Yes, that is the issue. Thank you. In my rc.local I have included modprobe to load ivtv. I didn't need to do this extra step when I build my FC2 box? Why wouldn't they be loading? Isn't including them in modprobe.conf supposed to load them? Sorry, I'm a Linux/Myth newb, so I'm just confused about this.

[mythtv-users] No video devices in /dev
I spent a good chunk of the day getting NVidia's 6629 drivers working in FC3. Once I got them working I followed Jerod's guide, and when I entered >ll /dev/video? I initially got one entry, /dev/video0. That was unexpected (my previous FC2 box had 4 enties like the guide) but I continued on. However, since a reboot, there are now no entried for /dev/video?, and of course the backend doesn't work because there is no /dev/video. Where do I look, or what do I need to do to correct this? ___ mythtv-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
