[mythtv-users] More PVR 350 - Progess I Think....]

[MythTV at C4L]

Sorry, Kevin on the ivtv list actually had the winning answer for this. 
As it turns out, I didn't pay close enough attention to the dmesg output
after loading ivtv-fb.  If I had, I would have noticed that /dev/fb1 was
created and that is what X was looking for.

On another front.  I'm now able to load up Myth and start to watch tv,
but it's choppy and then it freezes.  I had to load/unload ivtv &
ivtv-fb a couple of times to get this far.  I see the following output
from mythfrontend:

Waited 2 seconds for data to become available, waiting again...

2003-11-04 07:36:52 Waited too long for ringbuffer pause..
2003-11-04 07:36:53 Waited too long for ringbuffer pause..

It seems I get over one hurdle and hit another.

Thanks,

Dave
