I have the same thing happening to me.

[root at mythtv root]# uname -r
2.4.22-1.2129.nptl_25.rhfc1.at
[root at mythtv root]#


[root at mythtv root]# apt-get install bttv-kmdl-$KERNEL

E: Couldn't find package bttv-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl_25.rhfc1.at
[root at mythtv root]#


I downloaded this RPMS:

[root at mythtv root]# ls -l /files
total 7732
bttv-0.9.12-32.rhfc1.at.i386.rpm
bttv-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl_25.rhfc1.at-0.9.12-32.rhfc1.at.i686.rpm

But when I install the bttv-kmdl RPM, I get this:
[root at mythtv files]# rpm -Uvh
bttv-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl_25.rhfc1.at-0.9.12-32.rhfc1.at.i686.rpm

Which seems to cause my problems I emailed before on.  I read somewhere
about a patch being out but wasn't sure if it was applicable to my
problem.

	Happy Mything..
