Hello All- Thank you to all that replied to my cry for help. Well, I followed the suggestions I recieved, and the exact same thing happends. All I ever see is just a black screen in xawtv. I tried differeent inputs, comp1 and tv. No deal. Here is how I installed it: 1. Downloaded: fresh 2.2.16, i2c-2.5.2, and bttv-0.7.38 2. I patched the kernel with the i2c-2.5.2 patch 3. I configured the kernel with V4L enabled AND with bttv enabled 4. When it was done rebooting, I loaded the modules: modprobe tuner modprobe bttv 5. Here is what it looks like after I do that: bttv 33592 0 (unused) videodev 2464 2 [bttv] tuner 2252 1 i2c-old 3744 2 [bttv tuner] 6. I already had the dev files created from a previous install, so I went to xawtv. It set it to all the correct setting (NTSC, us cable,...) and it just showed a black screen. I am begining to get worried. After this didn't work, I began to look for other things to try. I went to the i2c-2.5.2 dir and make; make intstall. Then I went to the bttv-0.7.38 dir and did a make; make install. I tried to load the tuner module, and I get this: /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/tuner.o: unresolved symbol i2c_master_send /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/tuner.o: unresolved symbol i2c_probe /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/tuner.o: unresolved symbol i2c_detach_client /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/tuner.o: unresolved symbol i2c_del_driver /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/tuner.o: unresolved symbol i2c_master_recv /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/tuner.o: unresolved symbol i2c_attach_client /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/tuner.o: unresolved symbol i2c_add_driver So I loaded the i2c-dev module. After that, I could load the tuner and bttv modules. Here is what it looks like now: bttv 49408 0 (unused) kcompat24 3392 0 [bttv] i2c-algo-bit 7400 1 [bttv] videodev 2464 2 [bttv] tuner 2740 1 i2c-dev 3216 0 (unused) i2c-core 12060 0 [bttv i2c-algo-bit tuner i2c-dev] I am at work, so I can't test it now... but does that look right? Thank you all very much! Ryan
