centos 5 ivtv

I had a disk crash on my myth backend which wiped out the OS. I have a
new install but i'm struggling wih the ivtv modules. I can't work out
which versions i need of

kernel
video4linux*
ivtv*

Currently I have

kernel-2.6.18-194.26.1.el5.centos.plus.i686
video4linux-kmdl-2.6.18-194.26.1.el5.centos.plus-20100702-96.el5.i686
ivtv-firmware-20080701-18.noarch
perl-Video-ivtv-0.13-8.0.el5.i386

But the system can't find the ivtv module (FATAL: Module ivtv not found.)


If I change to kernel-2.6.18-194.26.1.el5.i686, then I can install
ivtv-kmdl, and load it and use mplayer to see video, but mythtv fails
to record.

Can someone give me a working combination, and if there's something I
missed, please point it out.

Thanks,

Chris

Of course I found a solution as soon as I pressed send :-)

It seems that video4linux-kmdl-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.centos.plus-20100401-94.el5.i686.rpm
contains the ivtv modules, so I installed the corresponding kernel and
everything is now working.

But video4linux-kmdl-2.6.18-194.26.1.el5.centos.plus-20100702-96.el5.i686.rpm
does not include it. Has it been moved somewhere else, or is this a
faulty package?

Thanks and regards,

Chris
