I built a new kernel following the instructions in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild to the point. So, the .config file is now different. I start with the file "config-3.8.0-7-generic" and do the "yes '' | make oldconfig" line. The resulting custom kernel boots up even with ivtv enabled, but nouveau doesn't work very well. After logging into the session, there are lots of kernel error messages. If I boot with nouveau.blacklist=yes I can log in, get a different graphics driver, and can start ivtv with OpenGL, e.g. mplayer -vo gl -framedrop -quiet -ao sdl /dev/video1 with erwin@armadillo:boot$ lsmod| grep ivtv ivtv_alsa 13730 1 ivtv 163268 1 ivtv_alsa tveeprom 21249 1 ivtv cx2341x 28283 1 ivtv v4l2_common 21497 5 ivtv,cx2341x,tuner,saa7115,msp3400 videodev 130441 9 ivtv,cx2341x,tuner,saa7115,uvcvideo,msp3400,v4l2_common,videobuf2_core,ivtv_alsa i2c_algo_bit 13413 1 ivtv snd_pcm 97451 5 snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel,ivtv_alsa snd 68876 31 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_usb_audio,snd_hwdep,snd_timer,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_pcm,snd_seq,snd_rawmidi,snd_usbmidi_lib,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel,snd_seq_device,ivtv_alsa
