This morning I discovered my MythTV wasn't working. I tracked the problem down to ivtv. I was using ivtv-0.4.5 with kernel-2.6.15-gentoo-r1. I remerged ivtv-0.4.5 and remodprobed ivtv, but it still didn't work (something about bad module format.) Anyway, I built a 2.6.17-gentoo-r8 kernel and installed ivtv-0.7.0 and rebooted with the new kernel. ivtv will modprobe now, but I'm still having the same problems with myth. Here's the output:
