The following was the required test script to install WinTV from Hauppauge on Fedora Core 4:

#!/bin/sh 

# Starting point:  FC4, base installation

# Core install following upgrade worked with 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4
# after resolving the following issues:

# Following the automated update to 2.6.15-1.1833_FC4 there were several 
# issues with duplicates from a stale v4l installation from source.
# clearing allfiles seemed to work.

# Requirements for Hauppauge WinTV-Go-Plus on FC4 (ALSA setup excluded)
# modprobe.conf
# ~/.mythtv/lircrc
# alsamix stored settings

# Failure start

echo The following is inteneded to resolve issues with unresolved symbols 
echo following the addition of the i2c modules for lirc:

# No other source installations should be needed

# Root:  Following the upgrade version information may not have been correct

# Find the current kernel 
echo $KVER

# Find duplicates of key modules 

for K in `locate bttv.ko | grep $KVER`; do ls -la $K ; done

for C in `locate tveeprom.ko | grep $KVER`; do ls -la $C ; done

echo The following may need to be run to clear any duplicates

echo mv  /lib/modules/$KVER /lib/modules/$KVER.old
echo Then reinstall the RPMs for the same 

ls -latr ~/install/*$KVER*

# Using the following to start:

echo sudo /sbin/modprobe lirc_dev
echo sudo /sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c
echo sudo ~jwalsh/install/lirc-0.8.0/daemons/lircd

# 1.  remove all old modules for the current source
