I'm having exactly(?) the same problem so if you find the answer before me, could you let me know. I will do likewise. There are MAKEDEV.sh scripts available which would create those device names, but that still hasn't done the trick for me. ie: Section titled: "Test DVB Card Tuner" at: http://bjblaster.com/projects/mythtv_box/index.htm HOWEVER, I'm not suggesting I am the person to follow here. I would prefer to see things work without using the script like it seems to for other people. I believe the dvb-bt8xx drivers are loading though. But I'm fairly new to this and can't paste results this moment. The card is detected as My intention right now is to recompile the kernel (since I had installed the card AFTER Fedora). No one suggests an "UNKNOWN/GENERIC" card detection is ok... which I'm thinking MIGHT be where I should be looking. But I'm guessing here :-) # dmesg bttv: driver version 0.9.15 loaded bttv: Bt8xx card found (0). bttv0: Bt878 (rev 17) at.... irq: 5 ... bttv0: using: *** UNKNOWN/GENERIC *** [card=0, autodetected] tveeprom(bttv internal): Huh, no eeprom present (err=-121)? bttv0: using tuner=-1 > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-dvb-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:linux-dvb-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of > richardjones@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Saturday, 10 September 2005 4:24 PM > To: linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [linux-dvb] No /dev/dvb devices in FC4 > > > > I've just started from scratch installing Fedora Core 4 in my > HTPC.
