Thanks for the message. Are you refering to the video capture card? If 
so, I have a PVR-250. I get the following after this: /sbin/lspci -v

00:0a.0   Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 
(CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
                Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV PVR 250
                Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 153
                Memory at e4000000 (32-bit, prefetchable)
                Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2

Doing a /bin/dmesg |grep ivtv also looked ok -- to me at least:

But, I receive the following error when trying -p = 1 thru 8
cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/test_capture.mpg

cat: /dev/video0: Input/output error

Does this mean my ivtv is working ok?
