Which zoran driver did you use ? If you tried the driver that is included in the 2.4.x kernel. Please the CVS version from the mjpegtools CVS with the 2.4.kernel, and try it again. If you have some output from your messages file, that information might help to find out what's wrong.
Or use a 2.6.x kernel. The zoran driver in the 2.4.x Kernel is not that well working. Which version of the mjpegtools do you use ? Do the TV applications like xawtv work ? > So I've got a few questions - > > - Is this the right list to talk about this stuff? This is the right list. :) > - Has anyone else tried to get a buz (or similar) working on PPC > hardware under linux (this card works fine on MacOS on this > machine) No, at lease I remember no message about that. I know that the BUZ also works on a SGI in IRIX. But that driver is not aviable. I have at least a BUZ and a a G4 MAC. But the Buz in the PC beside the MAC, and the MAC is only running MAC OS/X. I don't know if I install Linux on the MAC the next time. > - Should patches be submitted here? If you have patches the mjpeg-developer list might be better suited. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
