Hi Marty,
Sorry took so long to reply... Anyhow try this page for your
frequencies -
http://www.tesc.com.au/Channels.htm
It looks like there is only one standard so that may make it a bit
easier :)
According to the dmesg output from your other reply to Mark - your using
version 0.2.0(rc3g). One of the things I had to do was make sure there were
no duplicate modules for the kernel tree
(/lib/modules/[KERNEL]/kernel/drivers/media/video
and /lib/modules/[KERNEL]/extra/ I think). The distro included a bunch of
bttv drivers that conflicted with the ivtv drivers, and so did the emerge
package (gentoo distro) that I tried...
Also, according to the dmesg output - your card is being set to svideo
and
not the tuner... use ivtvtctl --help to get the argument to set the tuner
(should be id #6). If you can't get v0.2.0 working I would suggest the CVS
version 0.3.7b - I'm impressed, the 150 has crystal clear video and great
sound and no funky arguemnts to the modules (3 cheers for the ivtv dev
team :D !!!! )...
