[ATrpms-users] FC5 x86_64 + 2.6.17 + Atrpms ivtv + PVR500... What's the secret sauce?

[Matt Goebel]

I fixed this 5 minutes after posting....

Turns out loading the msp3400 driver manually did the trick after all.  
It just didn't un-mute the turners.  Once I did that everything was fine. 
I then added a line for msp3400 in modprobe.conf, rebooted, and the 
tuners remained un-muted and with sound.
