[mythtv-users] Help with Video 4 Linux 2

You get videodev.o by compiling V4L as a module, if you compiled it into
the kernel, you wont get it as a module. To get tuner.o, just select the
BTTV card in menuconfig to be created as a module, it will make tuner.o
for you.

Good luck,
Andy

I can't get the v4l2 patch to work after I apply kernel patch 
2.4.21-rc2  and if I apply it before 2.4.21that patch won't install.  
It errors with "Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume 
-R [n]"
I tried answering yes and part of the patch does install and some 
installs if I say no.  This seems like I'd be asking for trouble to use 
this setup.

I have an nForce2 motherboard and I think I need the IDE driver in the 
2.4.21-rc2 patch.

The real issue is I'm missing tuner.o and videodev.o.  I guess these 
are created with the bttv driver when you compile the kernel.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I really want to get this setup this weekend.  Everything else is 
compiled and I just need the drivers for the pvr-250 card to complete 
the setup process.

TIA
