[mythtv-users] Hauppauge 950Q, Fedora 11 - Kaffeine finds channels but MythTV doesn't

Thanks Chris.

This raises the question:  Can I get 950Q channel scanning to work on Fedora
11 by adjusting parameters, or is ATSC channel scanning not working at all
on Fedora 11?

Let me know how your Kaffeine test goes.  Successful Kaffeine channel
scanning here tells me the hardware, 950Q firmware, and drivers are all
working on Fedora 11.  There's a problem in MythTV itself on Fedora 11.

More general Fedora questions about MythTV for future testing:

I like to do clean installs to try changes so,

1.  I installed MythTV from RPMFusion by installing the "macro" mythtv
package.  Can I completely remove everything it installed with

	rpm --erase --allmatches mythtv

2.  Does the gnome "software updates" function look for updates to mythtv on
RPMFusion?

3.  Can I completely remove mythtv stuff from MySQL with

	mysql drop mythconverg

I also have Fedora 11 upgraded from Fedora 10, and also I find that MythTV
no longer works. I have tried reinstalling MythTV (also with the 0.22
version). Now, not only do I not have a working MythTV installation, but the
mythtv-setup has display issues which means that I am unable to configure it
at all.

I am about to re-install again, and will keep you in the loop. I have not
yet tried the Kaffeine application, but may try that tonight before
reinstalling.
