hmm, based on the var/log/messages...

Mar 13 18:01:32 mythbox kernel: fb0: iTVC15 TV out frame buffer device
Mar 13 18:22:34 mythbox kernel: ivtv: Found an iTVC15 based chip
Mar 13 18:22:34 mythbox kernel: fb0: iTVC15 TV out frame buffer device

its fb0

I have gotten to the point where I can kind of get X up on the TV...but the screen is all messed up...
I cannot actually see the login textbox when I log in...just the fedora background (part of it).once I do log in..the windows are 'duplicated' horizontally over the screen.

I suspect I have a v-sync/h-sync issue...anyone else have this with the XF86Config based off of Jarods??

I doubt if your PVR-350 is /dev/fb0, try /dev/fb1.
