Description Kevin R. Page 2007-06-04 15:39:59 UTC 
Description of problem:
The saa7127 module has previously been built as a module in Fedora kernels (pre
~2.6.19), but no longer is. Without this module the ivtv-fb module (for TV-out
on a Hauppauge PVR-350) doesn't work (package from ATrpms).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7
Comment 1 Dave Jones 2007-06-05 18:07:45 UTC 
fixed in cvs
Comment 2 Aaron Schlaegel 2007-06-08 03:56:15 UTC 
This is just a ping to let you know that those of us on FC6 also face this, and
will benefit from the module being built.
Comment 3 Dave Jones 2007-08-27 14:29:00 UTC 
should be fixed in current builds for both FC6 and F7.
