Hi, Jim and all,

I have updated lirc to lirc-0.7.0-pre2_13.rh9.at. Now if I run
#/sbin/depmod -a
it gives me:
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-20_29.rh9.at/drivers/media/video/ivtv-fb.o

I assume it is ok as I use PVR 250. Well, if I run:
#/sbin/depmod
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-20_29.rh9.at/drivers/media/video/ivtv-fb.o
depmod:         pte_offset
Anyone know if the second line is fine for my setting?
Ok, then, I follow rest of tutorial to set up things, but it is stalled after I run

mythtv at localhost mythtv]$ mythbackend &
[1] 3450
[mythtv at localhost mythtv]$ Starting up as the master server.
Probed: /dev/video0 - Composite 0

Oh, my box is AMD 2500+ and PVR250 with ati 9000 pro ( dual LCDs 15' and 18' now). Help on settung
up mythtv with cinerama is appreciated as well.

Thank you all,
Dan
