I never did get my pvr350 to output TV in this last release.
I decided it was time to wipe and reload.
I followed the HauppaugeThreeFiftyInstallation on the Wiki site. I get my exact same error from GDM. A blue screen with text saying my X configuration is incorrect and would i like it corrected.

The XFree86.0.log says


(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0
(--) Chipset PVR-350 found
(EE) (null)(0): ivtvHWProvbe failed to do IVTVFB_IOCTL_GET_STATE for device /dev/fb0
(EE) Screen 0 deleted because of no matching config section.
(II) UnloadModule: "ivtvdev"
(EE) Device(s) detected, but none match those in the config file.

Fatal server error:
no screens found

Where do I go from here?

I'm not used to replying to my own posts,
But.

I am now getting Video out to my TV set.

It is just a bunch of lines but the signal is stable. and repeatable.

Any ideas on how to tweak this into a usable video signal?


Thanks

Why don't you post your X Config and /stc/mythtv/modules/ivtv file?

What an excellent idea.

Here is my IVTV

++++++++++++++++++
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
#options ivtv debug=1
#options tuner type=2
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
install ivtv /sbin/modprobe tuner; /sbin/modprobe msp3400; /sbin/modprobe saa7115; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv ; /sbin/modprobe ivtv-fb; /sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c
remove ivtv /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove ivtv && /sbin/modprobe -r saa7115 && /sbin/modprobe -r msp3400 && /sbin/modprobe -r tuner && /sbin/modprobe -r ivtv-fb && /sbin/modprobe -r lirc_i2c

I'm having the same problem, does anyone know the cause of this?

Post subject: 

Try changing the lines:

Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"
Option "ivtvdev" "/dev/fb0"

to

Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb1"
Option "ivtvdev" "/dev/fb1"

and change your lilo.conf file like it says at the bottom of this page:

I'll give that a go.

For the change to lilo.conf. Does that change need to be made at the very top of the file, where it currently says vga=776 (or something similar)?

- ie, alter that setting, rather than adding it in as a new one?

Thanks.

Author:  jogle [ Mon Aug 22, 2005 4:01 pm ]
Post subject: 

Thats right, just remove the "776" and replace it with "normal"

Author:  miraclemaker [ Tue Aug 23, 2005 5:42 am ]
Post subject: 

Thanks, I'll try it out.

Many thanks!

I've made the change you suggested below:

to

Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb1"

and it works!

I didn't make any changes to my lilo.conf file.

I think the wiki should be updated to reflect that fb0 isn't necessarily the correct setting.

it does say
Code:

but I have no idea what the "previous section" is. Does anyone know a command which will print what frame buffer is attached to what card?

Yes I came across that issue too.
