> Hi, > > I wish to ask for your assistance. I have a PixelView TV card that I have > installed on my dual booted linux 2.2.1 (redhat 5.0) and win98. The card > works under Win98. Under Linux I can see channels 61,62,63,64, & 78. I > can not see any other channels. The other channels all show up as either > totally blue or a totally "snowy" picture. Audio works only only on > 61,62,etc. I have looked at the card and it uses the bt848akfp chip. It > has a philips tuner on it, but I can not tell exactly which kind. Below I > have the listing from some of the test runs I have done with the bttv > drivers (I am using 0.6.2) and xawtv. I am presently not using any > mapping, although I have tried to do that (with no better results) . The > video card is a Diablo3D by a company named mirage. It runs a S3 Savage3D > video chipset. Because this card doesn't have direct XFree support (no > driver) I am using the Framebuffer device to run X. The vesafb message > during boot up shows vidmem = 0xd80 and that it's being remapped to 0xe68. > Trying these settings didn't change anything (so I removed them). I don't > know if the framebuffer device support DGA (honestly I don't really know > what that is). Also note that it is recognized as a MIRO card. Upon > closer inspection of the PixelView card it looks like it has the same > setup as the MIRO card. > > The first test is using tuner=1 setting > > root@NASA adm]# xawtv > Display > This is
