Post subject:  PVR250 tuner not working after upgrade from R5A12 to R5A26

I just upgraded from R5A12 to R5A26 and can't get the PVR250 tuner to work. I've looked around for duplicate modules under /lib/modules and found nothing. I've also tried recompiling the ivtv drivers to no avail. The tuner module fails to load, but I don't know why. It worked fine under R5A12 for the past 6 months and under R4V5 before that.

Here is the output from dmesg:

Any suggestions of what I should try next?

Here's your problem.

What does your /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv file look like? I'm guessing that the old one which got carried across due to an auto upgrade has some obsolete options... FYI here's mine which SHOULD work since we've got the same version of the PVR-250 with serial numbers less than 600 apart.
Code:
root@black2:~# cat /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
install ivtv /sbin/modprobe tuner; /sbin/modprobe msp3400; /sbin/modprobe saa7115; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv
remove ivtv /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove ivtv && /sbin/modprobe -rsaa7115 && /sbin/modprobe -r msp3400 && /sbin/modprobe -r tuner
root@black2:~# grep tveeprom /var/log/dmesg
tveeprom: ivtv version
tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 32032, rev = B310, serial# = 6984053
tveeprom: tuner = Philips FI1236 MK2 (idx = 10, type = 2)
tveeprom: tuner fmt = NTSC(M) (eeprom = 0x08, v4l2 = 0x00001000)
tveeprom: audio processor = MSP4448 (type = 1b)
tveeprom: decoder processor = SAA7115 (type = 13)
ivtv0: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=tveeprom, addr=50]

Post subject:  Thanks

I wasn't aware that that file got carried over from the previous version. Thanks very much for your help. That took care of it.
