Re: problem with a TV card

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



kwintv won't work because you don't have KDE completely installed, or the
wrong version.  GnomeTV seems to be crashing your Gnome panel, or net loading
it properly, or something to a similar effect.  Try 'gnometv -a' to get it to
not use the panel.  (I'm not sure if that's the argument for gnometv, check
that with gnometv -h first!)

I made notation following, and for reference here's what modules I load when
starting X11R6:

Section "Module"
    Load       "dbe"
    SubSection "extmod"
      Option   "omit xfree86-dga"
    EndSubSection
    Load       "type1"
    Load       "freetype"
    Load       "speedo"
    Load       "extmod"
    Load       "xie" <-- i think this may be what you want?  not sure.
    Load       "pex5"
    Load       "glx"
    Load       "dri"
    Load       "GLcore"
    Load       "dbe"
    Load       "record"
EndSection

Maybe your tuner doesn't work, hehe, or maybe you didn't setup the hardware
just right?
