[mythtv-users] PVR-500 Problems

Sat Feb 25 06:26:44 UTC 2006

Hello all,

I'm trying to set up a myth system with a PVR-500, however running into
some problems.  I haven't even attempted to install myth yet... just
trying to get this card to work.  I'm using Gentoo Linux and following
the instructions on their wiki
(http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_PVR_500_Setup)

However, when I modprobe ivtv, I get this failures in my dmesg output.
It seems as if modules aren't loading.  Where do I get them?  Can
someone please help me with this?  (I would post my kernel config, but
it's too large to post -- I tried to post the most relevant sections)

Thanks!!
