Hi Roger, Have you tried xawtv version 3.68? xawtv version 3.69 (and 3.70) also crash with me with the bttv driver (version 0.7.x) I use at home. xawtv version 3.68 works without any problems in my configuration. At work I use an xawtv version 3.65 with the SAA7134 driver without any problems Gert "Roger W.Brown" wrote: > > Hi, > > I have failed to make SAA7134 to work and would be grateful for > any suggestions.
