[mythtv-users] PVR-500 installation

[Matt]

Alright, I'm to the point of installing the IVTV drivers.  Would this
be the correct steps?

cd ivtv/utils 
wget http://hauppauge.lightpath.net/software/pvr250/pvr250_17_21288.exe 
./ivtvfwextract.pl pvr250_17_21288.exe 
cd ../driver 
make; make install 
cd ../utils 
make 
cp ivtvfbctl ivtvplay mpegindex test_ioctl /usr/local/bin  


I want to make sure I'm still doing the driver thing correctly.  Thanks!

Matt
