[ivtv-users] TV output on Hauppauge PVR 350 stops working after upgrade

Package: xserver-xorg-video-ivtv

Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: normal

I upgraded a Knoppmyth R5 system using apt-get update ; apt-get
dist-upgrade to Debian stable, and the TV output via the PVR-350's composite out
stopped working. I spent a while making sure the right kernel
modules were being loaded and checking the xorg.conf.

X11 gets launched from /etc/inittab with this line:
c7:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/openvt -fwc 6 -- /bin/su - mythtv -c /usr/bin/startx >& /dev/null

The X11 server seems to be starting up fine, but nothing ultimately
shows up on my television. The TV acts like it's not seeing a signal at all
on the composite video in. This hardware worked with the previous version.

Oddly enough, I can connect to the X11 server from another machine via
LAN using xvnc4viewer, and that looks just fine.
