Description Markus Koßmann 2006-02-25 16:07:04 UTC 
The ivtv driver in factory is currently in bad shape
1.: On x86_64 only the ivtv-kmp rpms are provided, the ivtv rpm is missing
2.: The provided version 0.4.2 doesn't work with the 2.6.16rc kernel. There is the clear statement of Hans Verkuil ( the main developer of ivtv) in http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/devel/28126 : 
" Wait for 0.6 to come out or use the 0.6 branch in the subversion 
repository for now. 0.4 will not work with 2.6.16 and up. " 

I can confirm that. The 0.4.2 module still loads ( see attached log). But it if you try to tune:
# ivtv-tune -c E6 -teurope-west
ioctl VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY failed

This works fine with 0.6 :
# ivtv-tune -cE6 -teurope-west
/dev/video0: 182.250 MHz

Comment 3 Ruediger Oertel 2006-02-28 00:21:47 UTC 
hm, I can't see this:
1.: On x86_64 only the ivtv-kmp rpms are provided, the ivtv rpm is missing

147773 Feb 25 02:06 factory/FACTORY/inst-source/suse/x86_64/ivtv-0.4.2-7.x86_64.rpm

the update to 0.6 is another story and makes sense ...

AJ: please approve update of ivtv to SVN (to fix running on current kernel)
Comment 4 Markus Koßmann 2006-02-28 06:03:43 UTC 
> factory/FACTORY/inst-source/suse/x86_64/ivtv-0.4.2-7.x86_64.rpm
Yes, you are right. seems the mirror wasn't synced when I checked.

Btw: There seems to be another open issue with the ivtv driver:
the firmware (see bug #148259). I couldn't find the promised script for downloading the firmware. Or will be there a another solution ?
Comment 5 Andreas Jaeger 2006-02-28 06:14:46 UTC 
Rudi, update to svn is approved.
Comment 6 Ruediger Oertel 2006-03-13 00:13:43 UTC 
updated to 0.7.0cvs on March 3rd.
Comment 7 Paul Zirnik 2006-06-12 15:23:55 UTC 
the 0.7.x version does not work for kernel 2.6.16 it's for the upcoming 2.6.17 kernel. The 2.6.16 kernel needs version 0.6.x

see:

http://ivtvdriver.org/pipermail/ivtv-users/2006-June/003060.html

i suggest building this version of the ivtv driver. I have tested it with a
PVR-250 and this version works.
