Hi,
I'm trying to get my tv card running under Linux. It's a
PCTV card in a Athlon based system running Slackware 9.1. I
know the card is good as if I boot XP the Pinnancle software
works.
The card seems to be recognized (from lspci -v)

the apps I've built and tried like mythtv seem to see the
card but all I get is a green screen with some static at the
top over the upper 10% or so of the screen. I've been
reading documentation and I can't seem to be able resolve
this.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
