[mythtv-users] strange error flushing buffer ...

[Matt Jones]

Yes, i did read troubleshooting (its now section 20, actually - guess
you need to read it again). I'm trying to recompile my kernel - xawtv
picks up video perfectly, but cat /dev/video0 dies with an error about
"no device" (but ls /dev/video? shows /dev/video0). Maybe the new kernel
will fix the problem (i hope). Its really strange, because I've used
mythtv on the exact same setup about 3 months ago, and it worked
perfectly then.
