Hello,
Sorry about the delay, but I was tied up with work. I opened up my box and you're right, I have an SAA7130 card. I patched the kernel using the how-to and then tried to install the SAA7130 drivers, but am getting the following errors when I type 'make' :

/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-5/include/linux/bitops.h:45: warning: no previous
