[mythtv] WinTV PVR-250 Install/Config

[Adam Leach]

Hi All,

I'm new to MythTV and in the process of trying to get MythTV working,
but have encountered the following problem.

I get the following when trying to get the card working.  Machine is an
Athlon running SuSE 8.2.

Aug 18 21:58:53 dev2 kernel: ivtv: EOS interrupt not received! stopping
anyway.

xawtv loads, however doesn't return any picture.  kwintv fails.  I'm
based in UK so trying to get the PAL decoder working.

I would be extremely grateful for any help.

Regards

Adam
