When I run xawtv I just get a black screen, I changed to television, us
cable, but nothing, still just a black screen, not even snow. Ive done
some more poking around, running demsg | grep bttv produces the
following
bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).
bttv0: Bt878 (rev 17) at 00:09.0, irq: 11, latency: 64, memory:

however, after I run xawtv, to which I get no video, nothing, at all,
then I run demsg | grep bttv again, now I get this
bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).

Does anyone have ANY idea at all what is wrong...it appears the bttv
module is loading fine, when I booted up and ran lsmod |grep bttv I got
bttv 57600 0
i2c-algo-bit 7052 1 [bttv]
i2c-core 12768 0 [tuner bttv i2c-algo-bit]
videodev 4576 2 [bttv]
I ran xawtv -hwscan which scans for supported devices, I got this back
This is xawtv-3.72, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.16-686) looking for
available devices port 46-46
type : Xvideo, image scaler
name : NV Video Overlay
/dev/video0: OK [ -device /dev/video0 ]
type : v4l
name : BT878(Leadtek WinFast 2000)
flags: overlay capture tuner
so its definitely finding and detecting it, its like I cant get it to
seem to use it though, is there a config somewhere I have to tell xawtv
to use /dev/video0 ?
also, this is what appears in the xterm window after running xawtv
v4l: timeout (got SIGALRM), hardware/driver problems?

well theres all the info I can provide, someones gotta be able to help
me, this is driving me insane.
Thanks a lot
