Some places on the net and in my local docs mention a CARDLIST file, that I'm supposed to check for the card= option for bttv. On my Debian Woody system, a file of that name is nowhere. Is there a place on the net where that file can be found?
Also, I'm getting more confused about /etc/modules . Is the order of appearance in the /etc/modules important? I have bttv in there, but /var/log/messages show this on startup: Dec 4 21:55:13 continuity kernel: bttv: driver version 0.7.83 loaded Dec 4 21:55:13 continuity kernel: bttv: using 2 buffers with 2080k (4160k total) for capture Dec 4 21:55:13 continuity kernel: bttv: Host bridge is Intel Corp. 440LX/EX - 82443LX/EX Host bridge Dec 4 21:55:13 continuity kernel: bttv: Host bridge needs ETBF enabled. Is this ETBF thing the PCI interrupt sharing bugginess complaint? With my old bt848 card, I believe this didn't show up, but what DID show up was a message which precise card was indentified, and I'm missing that now. At any rate, the loading fails (lsmod doesnt list bttv). When I say (as root): continuity:~# modprobe bttv /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/drivers/media/video/bttv.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/drivers/media/video/bttv.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/drivers/media/video/bttv.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/drivers/media/video/bttv.o: insmod bttv failed Does this say the machine thinks the module is not available or no apropriate (hardware) device for the module is available? The module definitely is in /lib/modules/.../bttv.o . These are my current options: post-install bttv insmod tuner post-remove bttv rmmod tuner alias char-major-81 bttv options i2c verbose=1 scan=1 i2c_debug=0 options bttv card=10 pll=1 I'm beginning to wish I had kept the other card (the audio was very noisy and had a static hum, but at least I could watch TV). ===== . *************************************************** ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] m. +31 (0) 6 19544439 ** ** t. +31 (0) 10 418 2023 ** ** philips willemstraat 14B2 3051 PP rotterdam ** ** IT'S A MAN'S WORLD DESIGNING TACKY INTERFACES ** ** http://www.bambleweeny.com ** *************************************************** __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
