Pinnacle PCTV Hybrid Pro USB (320e - em28xx)


Hi,

I have a problem with a Pinnacle Hybrid Pro USB in OpenSuse 11 which I can configure via Yast, but no channels found with Kaffeine

Some advice, please ?

Thanks

In short, manually create the device vbi0.

rmmod bttv

mknod /dev/vbi0 c 81 224

ln -s /dev/vbi0 /dev/vbi

modprobe bttv
