test_ioctl?

Just wondering if anyone has seen this problem before.

I had my PVR-250 up and running on RH9, kernel
2.4.20-8 by compiling IVTV from the latest CVS 
tarball (copying the videodev2.h file over.)
Everything was working great, and I made a few test 
captures.

But after a reboot, I can't make recordings anymore.
When I try to set the video input using 
test_ioctl, I get:

    # /usr/lib/ivtv/test_ioctl -p 6
    ioctl: VIDIOC_S_INPUT
    ioctl: VIDIOC_S_INPUT failed

When I try to capture some video with "cat /dev/video0
> temp.mpg", the command immediately 
returns with no errors, and I get a 0 byte test.mpg
file.

/dev/video0 exists, and lspci shows that the PVR-250
is being recognized properly.
---------------------------------------------------

test_ioctl -d /dev/video3 -p 6

Your card is on video3, not video0...

Cheers,

-Peter
