0.19 SVN (something after 0.19) and ivtv 0.4.1 because I had to compile
my own patches to get it running on RH9. They changed the name of the
Tuner from Tuner 0 to Tuner in the recent releases. If you had your
card set up before and upgraded your ivtv along with myth, you probably
are encountering this. Go into mythtv-setup, clear all your capture
cards, and set it up again. It should work then.
