Hi all Mostly I lurk on this list but now .... My bt848 ( Zoltrix TVMAX card) used to work fine - until Mandrake 8 and RivaTNT. I got the new nvidia drivers for my Riva card and since then - no TV ... Previously I insmoded tuner type=0. It was perfect. The thing is ... I know that if you get a blue screen in xawtv ( and I do now) then the system does not see the card at all. Here's the dump from /var/log/messages: <severely edited> Jul 4 11:37:35 frodo kernel: bttv: driver version 0.7.62 loaded Jul 4 11:37:35 frodo kernel: bttv: using 2 buffers with 2080k (4160k total) for capture Jul 4 11:37:35 frodo kernel: bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).

Excuse the verbose mail Thanks Dave
