Hey all. I am trying to setup my knoppmyth box but I am having some trouble. I am new to linux as well so sorry if this is an easy question. I have the WinTV PVR 150 and I have knoppmyth5E50 installed. I read that I need to install the IVTV driver. I am trying to follow the directions at
http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=CompileIvtv. It is saying to use these commands:
Code:
    cd /usr/src/
    ls -ald kernel-source*
    tar jxvf kernel-source-2.6.15-chw-2.tar.bz2


I went into the /usr/src/ directory but I am not seeing any kernel-source or anything like that. The only thing I see is linux-headers-2.6.18-chw-13 but no tars or anything. Am I missing something?

IVTV is already installed in KnoppMyth by default. What may be the problem, is that the system is not properly detecting the PVR-150, thus you may want to add this line to your modprobe.conf file:

options ivtv tuner=50

This is a pretty common issue, and has been written about before. A forum search should turn up more information.

BTW - If /etc/modprobe.conf doesn't exist on your KM R5E50 system you can create it. Either as an empty file using touch or using something like:
Code:
echo "include /etc/modprobe.d" >>/etc/modprobe.conf
