Hi all, I've been working on this for quite a while and can't seem to come 
up with anything. I'm running an up-to-date gentoo 2005.1 profile on an 
amd64. I used the gentoo-wiki (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Setup_MythTV) 
and mythtv.org <http://mythtv.org/>'s instructions to get everything working 
so far. Everything looks great except I can't change the channel. Here's the 
output I get in the console when I try to change the channel in the 
frontend.
X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 8 
Major opcode: 142 
Minor opcode: 14 
Resource id: 0x1d2 
2005-09-01 18:12:56.176 Couldn't get the color key color, and we need it. 
You likely won't get any video. 
2005-09-01 18:12:56.365 The realtime priority setting is not enabled. 
2005-09-01 18:12:56.386 Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
2005-09-01 18:12:56.543 Video timing method: SGI OpenGL

>From the mythtv.org <http://mythtv.org/> documentation, this likely means 
the permissions aren't correct or mythfilldatabase erred. However, I changed 
the udev rule to 
KERNEL=="video[0-9]*", NAME="v4l/video%n", SYMLINK+="video%n", 
GROUP="video", MODE="0666" 
which should establish the v4l folder as 666. Mythfilldatabase doesn't show 
any sign of error either, so I'm looking for anything at this point. When I 
try to change channels it seems to stall for a second like its trying, and 
then the new channel's osd shows, but its still the same channel. If anyone 
can provide anything, insight or whatever else, I'd greatly appreciate it.
