/sbin/lsmod tells you what drivers are loaded, /sbin/lsmod | grep
zr36067 is what you're looking for. If it gives no output, don't worry,
just load the driver: /sbin/modprobe zr36067. It'll autodetect the card
type and load the driver appropriately. Run dmesg to get some kernel
output and confirm the driver was loaded and the card found.

2nd the best way to test the system
3rd can i use xawtv
Yes, xawtv is actually the first test most people will do. You can use
lavrec (part of mjpegtools) for compressed capture, which is nice for
low-end machines that can't do real-time encoding on their own.

hi all
I am a confused newbie (ie someone who knows enough to
get into trouble)
I have a dc10 plus card I beleive a card no. 2 type
i.e. it has a the following chips on it
ZR36067PQC-LV
ZR36060 PQC
SAA 7110A
ADV 7176AKS
That are the important IC's.
I am using a harddrive installed version of kanotix
which I beleive then becomes a debian system using
kanotixes schripts
The kernel is a 2.6.12-kanotix-1
I have installed mjpegtools ver 1.6.2-0.9 using synaptic
Take a look and find out if there is a compiled zr3606 module. Or maybe
the driver is alreaddy compiled into the kernel.

If you have that module try to load it. Usually the driver should detect
the card correct. If not take a look in ther kernel Doku file Zoran and
look here for the section 2 How do I get this damn thing to work:
....
Load zr36067.o. If it can't autodetect your card, use the card=X insmod
option with X being the card number as given in the previous section.
To have more than one card, use card=X1[,X2[,X3,[X4[..]]]]
options zr36067 card=X1[,X2[,X3[,X4[..]]]]
alias char-major-81-0 zr36067
....
sorry I don't understand
When loading the moduls look at the messages you find in your system log
(often /var/log/messages) If you encounter problems attach the output
from the log..
I can not find any errors re xawtv or anything which seems related to my
problem
my hardware is a 1800+ with a 9200se video card with a
sis motherboard
Should work, at least I do not remember reports where the card didn't
work.
my 1st question is how do i know what modules or
drivers are loaded? which do i need?
2nd the best way to test the system
Attach a video source (maybe not VCR for the first tests) and run xawtv.
3rd can i use xawtv
That one TV application you can use for viewing. :)
If you see the signal you can start an try to record from the card with
the mjpegtools. You might want to take a look a the mjpeg-howto (found
on the mjpegtoos hompage) first.

My last test was with the 2.6.10-kanotix-8 because I noticed an error while
booting related to i2c-core module but could not find any error in
/var/log/messages
where should I find a log which I see when booting?
The pc freezes completely when I start xawtv still stating incorrect input
so could you tell me how to do a short recording using the composite i/p
(that way I know the line will be correct)
Thank you all for your help so for
