TV Tuner Install
 

Hello
I have a Dell XPS 210 running ubuntu 7.10
I am trying to get my TV tuner installed so i can watch TV on linux. I have no clue what my TV tuner card's model # or anything is, but this is the output of lspci:

02:00.0 Multimedia controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device 4d53

I have installed a bunch of tv watching software but i don't know how to install the drivers for my tv card. i have tried both:

sudo modprobe saa7134
sudo modprobe bttv

but can't get either to find my card and put it under /dev/video0

so i know im being a little vauge with this because i don't know any thing about my chip, but any help is appreciated

also my pci is mini (or express, i dont remeber the term) so it is smaller than other regular sized ones

thanks

Since it is ATI, look here:

Finding the exact model of card you have would be a big help.

Model #??
 

this maybe the model number... im not sure...

ATi THEATER 550 PRO X1 PCIe

i will look into it but if anyone else can help that'd be great

Not supported yet.

thanks
 

thanks for the reply.. i guess most of my google searches have pointed to that doom...

oh well i'll just wait until it's supported and dual boot

Thanks
