Yes !
I want to get ritt of my win everything is working fine (after nearly 6 month of hard work) but one thing isn`t working at all.
This one thing is my tv card (asus v7700 deluxe).
Please tell me one by one how to activate my tv card i just have no idea!

i'm pretty sure the only tv drivers for linux are the bttv drivers, which should be with all new distros. check /etc/modules.conf to see if there's any reference to bttv.

This driver is only for the Brooktree 878/848 chpisets, which is by far far far the most common chip, set. check the mini howto

http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/B...HOWTO-0.3.html

assuming that it is the right chipset. I've looked on line and all i can find out abuot it is that it 'tv in/out might not be supported under linux'

I am having some problems to make Linux Mandrake 10.0 recognize my bttv 878 PixelView capture card (Rev 4C). The command "dmesg" shows me that it is installed. But "drakconf" cannot dealt with it.

But "drakconf" can't watch tv in my computer and neither my cam can show any image...

My .xsession-errors show me two errors that it could be the problem, but I can't how to fix it up:

kio (KIOConnection): ERROR: Header has invalid size (-1)
kio (KLauncher): ERROR: SlavePool: No communication with slave.

May someone help me?
