[mythtv-users] Audio, but black picture

Hello list members!

I just started experiencing the problem of getting audio but no
picture weather I am wathing livetv or say using cat /dev/video >
test.mpg.

I noticed this little piece in the mythbackend.log file:

2007-04-03 12:58:00.429 MPEGRec(/dev/video0) Error: Error getting
codec params using old IVTV ioctl
                        eno: Bad address (14)

I have no clue what has caused this, I am running the following kernel
2.6.18.2-34-default with this version of ivtv ivtv-0.8.0-9.  This is a
stock OpenSuSE 10.2, this setup has previously been running without
problems and I have not allowed the system to update the kernel or
ivtv drivers for that reason.

I know from the ivtv driver page that the 0.8 version is for the
2.6.18 kernels so that matches.

Any thoughts or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
