First my bad, I guess I was anticipating Fedora 9, I'm still running 
Fedora 8.... sorry for the confusion..

I tried installing ivtv and I had no luck:

[root at wisdom yum.repos.d]# yum install ivtv
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * livna: mirror.atrpms.net
 * fedora: mirror.umoss.org
 * adobe-linux-i386: linuxdownload.adobe.com
 * updates: mirror.umoss.org
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
No package ivtv available.
Nothing to do


I did however find ivtv-firmware and installed that.

What repo can I find ivtv?

Thanks,Jeff
