I am very sad because I have been for one year trying to make my Leadtek
Winfast TV2000 work under linux. And I can not hear anything. I am going
to try to describe my problem as good as I can. I hope you can help me. Thnx

NOTE: This modules.conf was copied from somewhere in the inet, I am
using tuner type = 5 because I am from Spain (we use PAL). And the tuner
works fine.

And that is the problem. Also if I load (force) MSP3400 (or tvaudio but
I have seen in bttvcards.c that my card doesn use tvaudio) writing
modprobe msp3400 or modprobe tvaudio when I make /sbin/lsmod, msp3400
appears but unused.
So that is the problem. If anybody can help me I will be very happy.
The only peripheral that I can't use under linux is this TV card.
I am using RedHat 7.2 but in redhat 7.1 I had the same problem.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the grammar.
