[mythtv-users] ivtv problems with latest upgrade

[Tim Vruwink]

Hi,

I recently upgrade my FC3 Kernel to the lastest version. Being new to mythtv 
and linux, I didn't realize that I would need to reload my ivtv kernel 
module. I removed the old version of IVTV using apt-get remove (firmware, 
ivtv kmdl).

Reloaded the IVTV drivers/module from ATRPMS. Did a depmod -a and then a 
modprobe ivtv only to get the following error message:
FATAL: Error inserting ivtv (/lib/modules/2.6.11-
1.35_FC3/updates/drivers/media/video/ivtv.ko): Invalid module format

ok, so I check dmesg | grep ivtv:
ivtv: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
ivtv: version magic '2.6.11-1.35_FC3 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4' should be 
'2.6.11-1.35_FC3 586 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4'
ivtv: version magic '2.6.11-1.35_FC3 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4' should be 
'2.6.11-1.35_FC3 586 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4'

So it appears that I have the wrong module installed. Doing a uname -a 
reveals:
Linux id 2.6.11-1.35_FC3 #1 Mon Jun 13 00:52:18 EDT 2005 i686 athlon i386 
GNU/Linux

So I should actually have i686 version. What is 4Kstacks however? Why am I 
downloading the incorrect ivtv drivers from atrpms? Should I just edit 
grub.conf and comment out the latest kernel (.35) and go back to (.27)?

This is a plain FC3 Hauppauge pvr-250 box. Used the Wilson guide to get it 
up and running and absolutely love it. It's been running great for 5 months 
until this latest problem. I would like to avoid rebuilding the box if 
possible.
Thanks.
Tim
