I have this old memory that the kernels used are a hodge podge of backports etc. So for a kernel-smp-2.6.9-55.0.9.EL should I use 0.4.10? Quoted from http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Download: The latest stable releases can be found here. Currently this is version 0.4.10 for kernels <= 2.6.15, version 0.6.7 for kernel 2.6.16, version 0.7.4 for kernel 2.6.17, version 0.10.6 for kernels >= 2.6.18 and <= 2.6.21.x and version 1.0.3 for kernels >= 2.6.22 and <= 2.6.23. Ps, anyone have any sugestion about dkms and ivtv?

I think the base driver code is mostly still at the stated kernel level. So 0.4.10 looks like it should work. -- MailScanner is like deodorant... You hope everybody uses it, and you notice quickly if they don't!!!!

I have 12 hosts with this config each with 3 Hauppauge PVR-350 cards. I record both TV and radio.> Ps, anyone have any sugestion about dkms and ivtv? >Yes, use ivtv kmdls from atrpms instead. Just remember to put an includepkgs into the repo file to avoid getting the full atrpms experience (it upgrades lots of system stuff). Something like this will get you started: $ cat atrpms.repo [atrpms] name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 - i386 - ATrpms baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el4-i386/atrpms/stable failovermethod=priority enabled=1 priority=10 includepkg=ivtv perl-Video-ivtv perl-Video-Frequencies ivtv-kmdl yum-plugin-kmdl ivtv-firmware Start by installing the yum-plugin-kmdl package to make yum properly handle installing/removing kmdls matching the kernels installed. -tgc
