Missing dvb drivers on Centos 5.3?

After doing the minor upgrade from Centos 5.2 -> 5.3, I'm not able to
get my HD5500 capture card working. I seam to be missing the cx88-dvb
module (among others):


before upgrade:
> ls /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.centos.plus/kernel/drivers/media/
video/cx88
cx8800.ko cx8802.ko cx88-alsa.ko cx88-blackbird.ko cx88-dvb.ko
cx88-vp3054-i2c.ko cx88xx.ko


After:
> ls /lib/modules/2.6.18-128.1.10.el5.centos.plus/kernel/drivers/
media/video/cx88:
cx8800.ko cx8802.ko cx88-alsa.ko cx88-blackbird.ko cx88xx.ko


Did things change with how/where DVB drivers reside, or has the driver
gone missing from the package?

Thanks,

John

The package is not part of ATrpms, but CentOS plus. I'm not sure what
changed between 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.centos.plus and
2.6.18-128.1.10.el5.centos.plus.

You could try installing
video4linux-kmdl-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5.centos.plus, and see if that
helps. This includes

/lib/modules/2.6.18-128.1.10.el5.centos.plus/updates/drivers/media/video/cx88/cx88-dvb.ko

(note: "/updates/" = ATrpms' kmdl, "/kernel/" = what the kernel rpm contains)

Thanks Axel and Jacob (off list). Indeed this is what I was missing.

Jacob pointed out the oh so helpful: yum whatprovides
that I wasn't aware of to help answer just such questions.

Cheers,

I didn't mean to reply offlist... I didn't even pay attention to the
fact that it was going directly to John rather than the list when I hit
"Reply"...
