Hi, Dave.

Can you send me your modprobe.conf?  I've got a similar configuration to yours and I can't get it to work.

Adding the modprobe.conf settings and rebooting the system fixed the
video issue. Since Tvtime does not work with the mpeg2 ivtv cards what
do others use to just watch TV. I may still install mythtv but sometimes
it is nice to have a simpler viewer.
