| Post subject: | Installation with new PVR-250 |
I just purchased a new pvr-250 and I installed it in my mythbox beside my Winfast2000. I decided to reimage the box with an auto install. At setup time I selected the i686 scripts with remote support. There are two problems and maybe they are related. 1. The ivtv drivers are not being loaded, I need to execute modprobe ivtv to load the drivers once the system is up. 2. The remote is not working. I have tracked this problem down to lircd not getting started. If I start lircd then I can use irw to verify functionality. I was assuming that with a pvr-250 my setup of the box would be a no brainer. What am I doing wrong to get the pvr-250 and remote to work? I am willing to reimage if necessary. Thanks, Mike G. |

More info. If I exit the frontend, start lircd and re-enter the frontend the remote works. Thanks, Mike G. |

not really sure why the ivtv driver is not loading on boot for you it is supposed to, but to force it in the /etc/modules file add a new line with ivtv |

I completed a fresh install with just the new pvr-250. The system successfully configured, remote and all. I then installed the Winfast 2000. The system remained stable, although I am still trying to get the second tuner to work. PIP seems a little unstable and my system would freeze if I entered into PIP and exited into a single tuner mode. I believe that the stablity is due to the configuration of the second tuner. Thanks, Mike G. |
