Re: v4l won't pick up video0

Hasnain,

bttv is used for older 848/878 type cards. FlyVideo 2000 should be using
SAA7130 (please check your TV Tuner board, FlyVideo seems to have
different boards with the same model number).

If you have the SAA7130 version, then you need the saa7134 modules and a
custom kernel patched with the V4L2 stuff from http://bytesex.org

There's a Kernel patching HOWTO at the site. You can also look in the
list archives for some of the pointers on how to build a custom kernel.

You'll need to patch your kernel and reboot to the new kernel first
before building the modules. Be careful about modutils version as well.
You can get newer versions of these tools from RedHat Rawhide.

I'm using RH7.3 + 2.4.19-pre10 and it's working fine with the FlyVideo
2000.
