You need to give me a little more to go on! ;-) Have you tried xawtv or some other application - do you know that your setup is working? If you answer the all questions I asked before, then we can narrow down your problem. If vidrgb gave you a seg. fault, then it should have generated a core file. Try: gdb vidrgb core > backtrace And let me know where it is that you are getting the seg. fault. Ben
