I hope that means something to someone else coz it doesn't mean a lot to me.
If I do need to update the bttv can someone explain how to do that.
What do I need to download, from where, where do i need to put it, and
what commands to I need to install it. etc.
My modules.conf tells me it is automatically generated and that it
shouldn't be edited. If that is so which file do I need to edit?

post-install bttv insmod tuner
post-remove bttv rmmod tuner
don't really know what i'm doing here, but if I can get this working
maybe I'll start spending more time running linux and less running
windows and get to know it better.
Thanks for any help you can give.
