Hi Ian, I had similar trouble with xawtv(3.19). I upgraded to the latest and the trouble was gone. Make sure you compile with the correct options (configure --help). It seems your card is fully recognised and functional. I also think it's not the Xfree4.0.1 driver, although I also use it and had similar trouble. - Marcel Janssen On Sun, 03 Sep 2000, you wrote: > (I am re-posting this message.
