Hi
 I'm having trouble getting the tv card working. Could someone point me in
the right direction? I'm on Fedora 10 64 bit

It seems to me that the problem is that /dev/video does not exist.

ivtv-tune -c4 produces: Failed to open /dev/video0

I never installed the firmware myself, I believe that this was done
automatically for me during a yum command - because /lib/firmware contains
these files

v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw
v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw
v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg
v4l-cx25840.fw
v4l-pvrusb2-24xxx-01.fw
v4l-pvrusb2-29xxx-01.fw
ivtv-firmware-license-end-user.txt
ivtv-firmware-license-oemihvisv.txt

dmesg reports:
Linux video capture interface: v2.00
ivtv:  Start initialization, version 1.4.0
ivtv:  End initialization

lspci -v http://pastebin.com/m501f247a


Any ideas?

Thanks
andrew
