[mythtv-users] Can't view live TV with 0.13 and pvr350

[Gregg Casillo]

I have just installed MythTV 0.13 on machine running a fresh install of
Gentoo Linux.I have a PVR-350 and installed the ivtv driver from CVS
today. I previously had 0.12 working on the same machine but was running
a 2.6 kernel which had some problems.

With my new install, I can view recordings just fine. However, when I
try to watch live TV, I get a black screen and no audio. I can hit
escape and quit the frontend; I get a message telling me that the
backend is nowhere to be found at this point. Indeed the backend appears
to have crashed. If during the black screen, I hit and up or down arrow
to switch channels, the frontend crashes with a segmentation fault.
Here's the output from that:

Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

Any ideas what this output means and what I can do to resolve this? Do I
need to give you more information?

Thanks!
