> Dear Allan,
>
> I added a new card type to the bttv module to initialize my Lifetec 9415 TV
> card properly. I'll append the patch against Linux 2.2.18.
>
> While looking at the bttv documentation that comes with the kernel,
> I noticed that it seems to apply to the non-kernel version of bttv.
> I half heartedly changed the INSTALL file to include at least all
> card type currently in the code and changed the wording a little.
> That file is included in full.
