OK, my immediate needs are solved with 2.6.24-gentoo-r4 and
ivtv-1.0.3-r2. Both of my PVR cards are seen by the system and record
successfully at the command line using cat /dev/v4l/video0 >test0.mpg.
(Or video1) xine plays the files fine.

Now the issue is to get the backend set up. First mysql, then
mythbackend, then some test recordings. your second link will help
with that I think.

Cheers,
Mark
