I removed the bttv module and all its supports including the i2c stuff. this time i got the buz modules loaded, but when i use xawtv there is no picture. if i run xawtv -c /dev/video0 the xawtv window opens and is black. a message appears in the xterm to the effect that "Composite-1 is not a valid inout, valid inputs are composite and s-video" (I think thats right i am not at the machine now). I think that error message relates to the fact that the default bttv card uses the composite-1 whereas buz calls it just composite. I have fiddled in the xawtv gui switching between composite and s-video but to no avail. i will try to set the input on the command line and see what happens. another point about the failure to get the buz modules loaded while bttv is loaded: foir the bttv card i have to load i2c-algol-bit with the parameter bit-test=1 - might this introduce some incompatibility with the buz modules. I am thinking particularly about the line in dmesg that said: > > Buz[0]: Initializing i2c bus... > > i2c-algo-bit.o: (0) scl=1, sda=1 > > i2c-algo-bit.o: (1) scl=0, sda=0 > > i2c-algo-bit.o: SCL unexpected low while pulling SDA low! > > Buz[0]: find_zr36057() - can't initialize i2c bus > When that works without any obvious error, try loading the buz modules: > saa7111, saa7185, zr36060, and than the zoran driver. > > auf hoffentlich bald, > > Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter > > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard -- Nick Rout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
