After trying for about two weeks, I have not had any success getting my ADS TV card to work. I have compiled the kernel (2.4.2-2, redhat 7.1) with video4linux and I put the bt878 in a module. when I try to run xawtv, I get the error "The app-defaults file is not correctly installed. I compiled the latest (3.43) version of xawtv, but that didn't help. I also tried to get a new version of bttv, but the latest won't compile, something about an unknown field "fops" specified in the initializer. I did manage to compile bttv-0.7.64, but that didn't do much for me. I feel like I am trying the wrong things. The error seems to indicate that something is messed up with my X11 configuration. I would like to know why I cannot compile bttv, though. Can someone help me with determining why I cannot run xawtv? Thanks, Raymond rrooks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
