help is greatly appreciated. I am pulling my hair outand there was not
much to start with!<br>
<br>
At this point, after following more than a few howto's and guides, I am
ready to start over if that is the best course of action. Is there a
clean howto for gentoo with TV-out working?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

I could not get TV-out to work with the radeon driver but it is working with vesa<br>
Is this a possible problem?<br>
It was in color, now it is B&W only, ugghhh<br>
<br>
I cannot get the video input to show anything but black static. The
cable (RG-6) is attached to the coax connector and I have checked that
there is signal.<br>
Which device is the right one? I get
output from /dev/v4l/video0, video24 and video32 but it is black static.<br>
I have followed the ivtv guidance to get
the firmware into /lib/modules... but no change even after a reboot.<br>
<br>
The mce remote does not work. (it is the one with gray on top) I tried
jarod's file and the one that gets created by manually when I compiled
lirc from source. <br>
The lircd log below shows it as ok after the
last reboot and it loads the firmware accorging to dmesg below.<br>
irw show nothing.<br>
<br>
<br>
Now I have lots of this in /var/log/messages and dmesg<br>
