[mythtv-users] mandriva 2007 & pvr-350 TV out? do they work?

[Malcolm]

I used to have the PVR-350 tv out working on mandrake 10.0 a long time ago. 
I installed mandriva 2007 and it already had ivtv 0.7 pre-installed.  I 
cannot however get tv out to work.

cat /dev/video0 > /dev/video16 does not work.

When the box boots I see the TV go from no signal to a black screen when 
saa7127 module loads.  It however does not appear to take the options like 
enable_output=1 output_select=1 like it used to way back in the day.

This is the Xdriver I downloaded and am trying to use
http://www.hellion.org.uk/ivtv/debian/ivtvdev_drv.so~i386
as instructed by this page
http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Howto:XDriver
which says I need that driver from hellion.com because it has been compiled 
with xorg 7.1 support which is in mandriva 2007.

I have the driver file over here
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ivtvdev_drv.so

I checked /var/log/Xorg.0.log and I don't see any references to ivtv or any 
errors?

Here's what I added to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:
