Brigitte,
Thank you for all the valuable information! You saved the PCTV
pro card from some serious FUBAR.
Most of the info I found already, but the missing pieces were
1) the tda9887.c modification
2) the tvaudio.o removal
The nice things about the modules is that you do not need to reboot
your PC anymore. I just did a
make modules; make modules_install
renamed the tvaudio.o to something like tvaudio.o_o
rmmod various modules (bttv, tuner, tda9887 and tvaudio)
run xawtv
and there was television on my screen!
Everything related with TV works fine now with the PCTV Pro card!
Guess I am now ready to add your radio patches to enjoy the music.
A happy New Year to you BJ,
Yuen.
PS. Just some info about my system:
Athlon 1 GHz on a A7Vpro
running Red Hat 9 with a kraxel(#4) patched 2.4.23 kernel
My modules.conf
# i2c
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev

My dmesg bttv part looked like this
