Hey,

I want to get Myth TV to work with my gentoo-dev-sources 2.6.7 and a Matrox Marvel G400-TV. Myth TV is installed and everything but when I run 'mythsetup', it doesn't really find my card. Someone told me I have to patch whatever with the patch code on this site: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=5012984&forum_id=5226 (a little down on the page, beneath the calendar). I never patched anything, so how do I do this? I tried saving the code as a file and doing this:
Code:
# patch -p1 --dry-run -i patchformatrox
(Patch is indented 1 space.)
can't find file to patch at input line 5
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
| diff -u -r linux-2.6.7/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.c
| linux-2.6.7-marvel/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.c
| --- linux-2.6.7/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.c      2004-06-16 07:19:26.000000000 +0200
| +++ linux-2.6.7-marvel/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.c       2004-06-24 08:22:09.000000000 +0200
--------------------------


Well, that didn't work and I thought that's because the filenames are incomplete, because the file i2c-algo-bit.c for example is in /usr/src/linux-2.6.7-gentoo/drivers/i2c/algos/. I renamed all the paths in the file and did the same command again:
Code:
# patch -p0 --dry-run -i patchstuff
(Patch is indented 1 space.)
patching file /usr/src/linux-2.6.7-gentoo/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 380.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file /usr/src/linux-2.6.7-gentoo/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.c.rej
(Patch is indented 1 space.)
patching file /usr/src/linux-2.6.7-gentoo/drivers/media/video/msp3400.c
(Patch is indented 1 space.)
patching file /usr/src/linux-2.6.7-gentoo/drivers/video/matrox/i2c-matroxfb.c


Seemed to work better except for that one file i2c-algo-bit.c.

How can I fix that?
BTW, if you have the same card I do, please tell me how you did it...

Thanks!

This might help, my output from
Code:
lspci:0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400 AGP (rev 04)
