Bt848 Video capture card

^^^
The card his detected... *** UNKNOWN/GENERIC *** , otherwise the modules wouldn`T be automatic loaded right?

meanwhile, i am still waiting for the xawtv output, but you may issue:

#rmmod bttv
#rmmod tuner
#modprobe bttv card=0 tuner type=5

i don`t see any unusual output from those commands:
lsmod |grep bttv &
dmesg |grep bttv

Well detected incorrectly is not much for detection and if you would look he knows the tuner=0 from the chip on the card anyways.....

I wrote in my /etc/modules :

Code:

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

psmouse
bttv card=1

But card doesn't load at boot
