[mythtv-users] PVR-500 Only one tuner works

[Peter Darley]

Lonnie,

     Again, please pardon my ignorance. :)

     I thought that the kernel was monolithic and the modules were  
all compiled into one kernel binary?  If so, what should I be renaming?

     When I do a locate ivtv, I get several sets of things that don't  
look like source or docs, any of which I could potentially rename:

     I get /sys/module/ivtv/ with a bunch of files and directories  
under it.

     I get /usr/lib/ivtv/ivtvfwextract.pl which is certainly not a  
driver.

     I get /lib/modules/ which has ivtv-fw-enc.bin and some  
other .bin files in it.

     I get /lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1378_FC3/updates/drivers/media/ 
video/ with ivtv.ko and other ivtv related .ko files.  Would these be  
the kernel modules that I would rename?  I don't seem to have any  
other ivtv.ko files anywhere else on the system.

Thanks for your patience,
Peter Darley
