(ATrpms 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4 kernel)

What a wild weekend this has been on the myth front...

I have picked up a pcHD-3000 and installed it, but it is not being
assigned anything in /dev.

Upon checking dmesg, I found:

cx88xx: disagrees about version of symbol tveeprom_hauppauge_analog

This apparently is due to the fact that I had to compile ivtv-0.4.2 from
source to get the M179 working after a kernel upgrade and me accidently
deleting the ivtv-kmdl-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4 RPM.

I can't go to 2.6.15 with alsa 1.0.10 from ATrpms as I run into a bug with
my SB Live Value card (Alsa bug 1681, "the emu10k1 gives the following
error when one tries to run alsamixer ALSA lib
simple_none.c:1218:(simple_add1) helem (MIXER,'Front Playback
Volume',0,0,0) appears twice or more", fixed in 1.0.11rc2 and up), plus
the swap problems in that kernel.

I even went so far to try getting a new sound card for 2.6.15, but wasn't
able to get the permissions working correctly so the myth user could use
the card and have the optical turn on after a reboot (damned udev, will
have to try to get my head around that mess later).  This is also when I
found the swap bug, so another reason to roll back to 2.6.14

So, does anyone know where I can get a copy of the ivtv-kmdl-2.6.14-1 RPM
for FC4, or have a copy of it laying around?
