I guess they use it in the "STANDALONE ANALOGTV GRAPHICS CARD" setup. See page 4 of http://www.semiconductors.philips.com/acrobat/literature/9397/75010348.pdf In this case it is is not connected to the PCI bus. > 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 0181 (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) > Subsystem: Unknown device 3842:3088 > Flags: bus master, 66Mhz, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 > Memory at d6000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] > Memory at d8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M] > Expansion ROM at d7fe0000 [disabled] [size=128K] > Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2 > Capabilities: [44] AGP version 3.0 > > Now...

Hack You can configure the chip through I2C. I2C Linux drivers which work for most nVidia cards are available. For programming the video input of the graphics chip, you will have to ask nVidia or see if they support it in their binary X11 drivers. Maybe you have luck and RivaTV works on your card (see http://rivatv.sourceforge.net/). In any case, they probably do not support the SAA7133 (RivaTV does not). So, you will still need a major re-write of the SAA7134 drivers. Maybe use the SAA7113 driver as a starting point. Ralph
