Getting TV card to work...

helloyo · 10-11-2003, 09:52 PM

Hi,

I'm trying to get my lifeview tv card (bttv driver) to work with RedHat 9 in Australia. I try tuning it, but it doesn't work, and i don't understand what some tutorials say...

Can anyone please help me?

Thanks in advance.

But really, paste exactly what card you are using via the 'dmesg' output or what's in your /var/log/messages file.

Paste anything in those files that has anything to do with your tv card.

PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 00:0b.0
