Hi guys I've been spending quite a bit of time on my Ubuntu Mythtv project latetly. However, I have hit a major problem and need help. I have done this so far: 1. Installed and configured MySQL and PhpAdmin 2. Compiled from source the IVTV drivers successfully 3. Installed a Happaugge PVR 350 mpeg2 pvr card 4. Installed the pvr350 firware drivers. I get this error (Encoder mailbox not found - decoder mailbox not found - Error -12 on initiliation) and cannot use the card with Mythtv.

magnetic! All newer versions of ivtv seem toproduce this error on ppc (sometimes even on non-ppc arches). As you use a 2.6.15 kernel you still can downgrade to an older ivtv-0.4.x version and it should work! friendly, frostwork

Frostwork Thanks for the tip. I should have consulted you earlier.. It seems playing with the IVTV stuff I somehow screwed up my install - Ubuntu boots but I get no sound, mouse doesnt work, and no internet.. any suggestions? magnetic

-ivtv 0.6.x is NOT WORKING (see bugzilla and digest readme) and if it would, it would be with kernel 2.6.16. -ivtv 0.4.2 is not working with kernel 2.6.16. So, as frostwork said, you must use 0.4.2 and kernel 2.6.15. I have a PVR350 and it works very well here, but as you, I can't upgrade my kernel neither my ivtv drivers or it won't work anymore.

geoffrey Thanks for your post.. However it contradicts itself. You said 4.2 was NOT working then you say it is?? I had compiled and used 4.2... ??? Also, any idea why my ubuntu is FUBAR now with no interenet, sound, or mouse?? magnetic

There was an error in my post. I meant 0.4.x and 2.6.16 are incompatible (not 2.6.15). On Gentoo, it seems there is now a 0.7.0 version for 2.6.17 kernel working with AMD & x86. Don't know for PPC and for Ubuntu. If you have Gentoo check this file : /usr/portage/media-tv/ivtv/ChangeLog (do an "emerge --sync" before) For your Ubuntu problems, well I don't know. What version do you use Dapper/Breezy ? Did you upgrade or is it a fresh install ? Do you use the good kernel ? Do you use ALSA or OSS ? Did you check that there was the required modules in your /etc/modules file and that they are compiled as modules or built into the kernel ? Do you use USB or PS/2 mouse ?

Geoffrey My Ubuntu install was "Dapper" 2.6.15-23 ppc. Everything was working 100% then it got messed up when I was doing the IVTV stuff, something to do with kernel modules or something.. don't know cant apt-get anything as there is no internet What do you suggest? magnetic ps which version of ivtv works with 2.6.16? Also do you have the Video Out on the PVR350 working? How is the speed on Peg2? Can you watch and record Live TV?

Post subject:
Hi! > What do you suggest? Hhhm, does it boot correctly when you remove your pvr? The older ivtv-0.4.x also generate kernel-modules which are probably already in your modules: i.e. if you didn't remove the old ones there are several modules twice in your modules-dir. As 0.4.5 anyway doesn't work you should consider removing all ivtv-modules and "depmod" to bring up your old modulestable. Let's hope your ivtv-install didn't delete any of your previous modules... >ps which version of ivtv works with 2.6.16? On x86 it's ivtv.0.6 kernel 2.6.17.x use ivtv-0.7 none of both work on ppc >Also do you have the Video Out on the PVR350 working? How is the speed on Peg2? Can you watch and record Live TV? I had it particularly working on my stoneold debian install. Speed was fine, but the screen froze after some seconds.(maybe a cache prob?). For tv-out I suggest to use the mighty gatos-patches friendly, frostwork

hi Frostwork Ok. I have Ubunut working normally again. It seems I had to reisntall some bs debian package I installed when I was hacking with the ivtv stuff to get it to work... : / I instaleld this package and when I removed it (with Synaptic) I couldnt boot - I think its kernel module related as you stated. lease see this: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.madwifi.devel I had a RPM I converted with Alien and installed the .deb package ( i know I know) How to corretly uninstall this package please?? Quote: I had it particularly working on my stoneold debian install. Speed was fine, but the screen froze after some seconds.(maybe a cache prob?). For tv-out I suggest to use the mighty gatos-patches Smile Ok... I can use the Radeon out anyway.. How do I apply the gatos stuff to my xorg stuff? TIA I feel i'm so close to getting this working. All help is very much appreciated. I notice Gentoo is now running 2.6.17 kernel hopefully Ubuntu will move onto this.. BTW how can I properly upgrade from 2.6.15 to 2.6.16? Also i'm not using Grub so I would need to make a mkvmlinuz link.. thanks Quote: magnetic On x86 it's ivtv.0.6 kernel 2.6.17.x use ivtv-0.7 none of both work on ppc Sad It seems I have 0.4.6 of the IVTV driver installed - how can I completely remove it so I can compile from source an older driver? (BTW WHich driver works? 0.4.2??)

hi, magnetic! Sorry I'm afraid I don't understand your 1st part correctly: - Ubuntu is back to normal is it? - What does madwifi has to do with the prob >...( i know I know) ... - It's been a while with debian, but doesn't dpkg --remove "package-name" work? >apply the gatos stuff to my xorg stuff Please see here: http://megahurts.dk/rune/tv_output.html (but it's your own fault when s.th goes wrong ) > upgrade from 2.6.15 to 2.6.16 Why not built a new 2.6.17.11 ? It's not so hard But make sure with a 2.6.16 or newer kernel chances are low you can get ivtv to work atm... Geoffrey is right with saying 0.4.2 works (with 2.6.15 as he also said ) Sorry with not being very helpful with ubuntu/debian stuff! frostwork

If you want your PVR350 you don't have much choice at the moment : You must use 2.6.15 kernel and ivtv 0.4.2 to make it work. If you use another kernel or another version, it won't work. If you have installed something wrong by hand and it was a RPM, try a "rpm -e packagename". If it does not work I guess you will have to do it by hand. If it's a debian or a ubuntu package you can use dpkg as Frostwork told you. I have the feeling reading your posts, that you installed / uninstalled a lot of stuff mixing uncompatible things. So honnestly, I guess it would be faster if you would : 1) Reinstall a clean Dapper from start if you still have unresolved problems with some packages that you installed manually 2) Check that you use 2.6.15 kernel with good options (VIDEO_DECODER and other options must be enabled in the kernel to use your PVR). Rebuild it if needed. 3) install ivtv 0.4.2 and not an other version 4) install mysql 5) install lirc if you have an IR remote control 6) install mythtv 7) use a clean Ubuntu install with your PVR350 and enjoy !

Hi Guys Thanks for the tips. Geoffrey - I didnt really install/play with "alot of stuff" just ivtv. Doing a fresh install is not really an option since I have so much work into this install with alot of things compiled and working correctly.... since IVTV is a kernel module how to uninstall it so I can downgrade to 0.4.2? I'm running 0.4.6 atm.. no wonder it doesnt work. Thanks magnetic ps I installed LIRC and came up with this ################################################## ## LIRC IS NOT CONFIGURED ## ## ## ## read /usr/share/doc/lirc/html/configure.html ## ################################################## Any tips? ( ishould have asked for tips on ivtv b4 the install ) Also, how do i know what flags are compiled with my kernel?

Hi! > ince IVTV is a kernel module how to uninstall it so I can downgrade to 0.4.2? It should be sufficient to simply install 0.4.2 over 0.4.6 as all files are overwritten. ivtv (0.4.x) has following kernel-modules, which you could delete (afterwards "depmod" to refresh your modules list): ivtv ivtv-fb msp3400 saa7115 saa7127 tveeprom cx25840 tda9887 Some of them might already have been in your kernel before & ivtv replaced them with own ones (f.e. msp3400 & tveeprom)! >ps I installed LIRC and came up with this >Any tips? read /usr/share/doc/lirc/html/configure.html ! earlier lirc didn't have a hauppauge config file - I think it was added ikn later lirc-versions. your ivtv-sources should contain a config, compatible with your pvr350 rermote! >Also, how do i know what flags are compiled with my kernel You should have the sources of your used kernel installed: Usually a symlink /usr/src/linux points to your sources-dir. There you'll find a ".config". If you don't have the sources, maybe ".config support" was built into your kernel: Then you should be able to read /proc/config.gz Good luck, frostwork

Hi! Before starting to fight with mythtv did you already test if your ivtv drivers work? cat /dev/video0 > /path/to/test.mpg should record at least some snow... Can't tell very much about your myth-prob - I'd browse some mailinglists or debian/ubuntu forums... maybe mythtv doesn't have enough priviledges to open a screen(?) you should try to install a newer myth-version as 0.18.1.20050510-1 is - as the name shows - stoneold! Newer versions also work better on ppc! >Couldn't save cache cache image: No write priviledges to your own home? Disk full? Completely messed up mythtv? >I just ran "mythfrontend" and the menu pops up but when I select "Watch Tv" The screen just goes black... here is the shell output (sorry for the long lines) you'll have to configure 1st your mythtv-stuff (myth-setup) & populate your mysql-database for your running mysql. btw Xawtv4 (snapshot) is said to support ivtv (never tried it...). It's easier to setup for the beginning! cheers, frostwork
