I recently installed Red Hat 7.1. I have a
Hauppauge WinTV card that shows up to my system (dmesg output) as a
"B878". This card works fine when I am booted up into Windows. I
have always had issues getting it to work right with Linux. Does anyone
have a proven configuration for getting RedHat 7.1 to work with a B878
card? I have the generic 2.4 kernel that comes with 7.1, and have enabled
tuner.o and bttv.o into the kernel (per the documentation that I found on
Hauppauge's web-site... I was unsure what to do with i2c, since the 7.1 image
comes with a "i2c_old.o and another i2c_??.o). I downloaded / installed
the version of xawtv and kwintv that is on Red Hat's ftp site under the 7.1
tree. I am getting a very fuzzy / broken (multiplev images) picture
when I try to bring up the application. I am pretty much a novice to this
WinTV on Linux stuff, and although I have tried all of them, what settings
should I use for U.S. (PAL, vs. NTSC vs. ??). Is there a FAQ or
something I can refer to in trying to set this up?
