The firmware that does exist (e.g. 4l-cx23418-apu.fw, etc.) seems to be contained in a separate RPM "kernel-firmware-20130714git-1.2.noarch" The firmware that is missing was previously (in OpenSuSE 12.3) included in package "ivtv-firmware" but this package seems to be missing in 13.1beta So the solution is simple, either re-introduce package "ivtv-firmare" or add the missing files to package "kernel-firmware-20130714git-1.2.noarch" Note: The latest firmware can be found at http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/ivtv/firmware/ivtv-firmware.tar.gz Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to load the ivtv module with modprobe ivtv 2. Look at dmesg where error message about missing firmware is seen 3. Actual Results: Error messages: [ 8339.635660] ivtv-alsa: module loading... [ 8339.964127] ivtv0: Unable to open firmware v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw (must be 376836 bytes) [ 8339.964132] ivtv0: Did you put the firmware in the hotplug firmware directory?

Add the missing package from 12.3 repo since this firmware is architecture independent. Since this fault completely breaks the handling of video cards this could be considered a major problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
