[ATrpms-users] ivtv_xdriver for fc6 (resolved)

I found a message about a patch for Debian that helped
me get the new module built properly and after I
created my own patch I could build a new RPM.

Here is my new source and binary rpms for the
ivtv_xdriver, maybe someone could take what they need
from it to build an ATrpms RPM:

http://voidmain.is-a-geek.net/files/RPMS/ivtv_xdriver/

Here is the message that led me to the solution:
http://www.mail-archive.com/ivtv-devel@ivtvdriver.org/msg03517.html

Now Myth is working great on my fc6 machine with the
PVR-350. It seems the stutter problem that I was
having on fc5 has almost cleared up completely.

Thanks!
