Subject: Weird_video_card_behavior_after_PCTV_removal Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2003 17:50:06 -0500 Message-ID: <20030220225006.GB3143@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> User-Agent: Mutt/1.4i I recently installed a Pinnacle PCTV Rave. I am in the US and I was using Mandrake 9.0. I think the defaults in the harddrak/drakxtv for the card are for either a european version or they are just wrong. I got the video working by overriding the defaults at insmod time using /etc/modules.conf - no big deal. I could never get the audio to work, but I think that is due to the fact that tvaudio version I was using does not yet support tda9885 chips. After fooling around with patches for a while I gave up and decided to take the thing back and either do more research / get a different card or both. Then the weirdness started. When I removed the card and powered my monitor back up, it had an erie blue tint to it. Did the PCTV card do something to My video card? Has anybody ever seen this kinda weirdness? I am using a rage video card; here's my lspci output. slammin$>lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX Host bridge (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX AGP bridge (rev 03) 00:04.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02) 00:04.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01) 00:04.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01) 00:04.3 Bridge: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 02) 00:09.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905B 100BaseTX [Cyclone] (rev 64) 00:0a.0 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
