[mythtv-users] ivtv, PVR-250, FC3, Jarod's guide and no capture - newbie

[George Lopez]

I have a critical issue with mythtv.  I cannot capture
because I am not able to get ivtv to load.  Not sure
if this is a Jarod's guide issue, ivtv issue, or user
issue.  I have gotten everything up and running except
I cannot capture anything b/c I cannot get ivtv to
load.  I have done everything I could think of and
find on the mail lists.  I am so close, yet all I have
is a hunk of metal until I get this issue resolved. 
Modprobe.conf lines are there:
# nvidia kernel module
alias char-major-195 nvidia-1_0-6629
# ivtv modules setup
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv

[root at localhost mythtv]# /sbin/depmod -a
[root at localhost mythtv]# /sbin/modprobe ivtv
[mythtv at localhost ~]$ ll /dev/video?
ls: /dev/video?: No such file or directory

I su to root and no help on finding /dev/video?
[root at localhost mythtv]# ll /dev/video?
ls: /dev/video?: No such file or directory

I see I have .741 ivtv kernel installed.  Is it
supposed to match .681_FC3 kernel I am running?  If
so, how do I make the change?

Please help.  I have everything else working (sound,
mythfilldatabase, etc) since I just continued my
install process figuring I can go back to loading ivtv
once e-mail help arrives.

thanks,
George
