Post subject: | [R5D1] X11 PVR TV-out problem (ivtv_fb related) |
Hi, After the upgrade to R5D1 I am having some trouble with starting X11 through PVR350 tv-out automagically. The computer boots into runlevel 5 as usual, but for some reason it does not load ivtv_fb. The X11 driver obviously cannot access fb1 and craps out. If I manually do: Code: rmmod ivtv and then do: Code: modprobe ivtv it still does not load ivtv_fb. This: Code: modprobe ivtv_fb
works fine, and I can successfully start X11 afterwards. Shouldn't ivtv_fb be loaded automatically with ivtv? If not, how can I make sure that ivtv_fb (or any other module) gets loaded before X11 is started? To be honest, I am not sure if this really is an install issue, since I haven't seen anyone else reporting on this... Anyway. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks Mark |

Well, if ivtv-fb is not loaded, the PVR350 would show a black screen. I do think, however, that you should see some colors flashing when ivtv is loaded and the card is initialized... |
