The wrapper script for xawtv has most of what is here in the discussion,
but for people who don't have an NVIDIA card, xawtv still does not start
with the default /usr/bin/xawtv script. I have an ubuntu 8.04 and the
default error message (without adding a manual -nodga) still gives the
same
Intersting. I have an ati All-In-Wonder 8500DV (R200) and I am having
similar troubles. I got the tv to work once. Don't know what went
wrong since. When I try xawtv -nodga I get:

7.10 (gutsy): We patched the shell-wrapper script /usr/bin/xawtv:
Replace the line number 12 which contains the following
if [ `xdpyinfo -queryExtensions | grep NV-GLX` ] ; then
with either
if [ `xdpyinfo -queryExtensions | grep NV-GLX` ] ; then
or more elegant
if xpdyinfo --queryExtensions
Please apply the trivial patch to the shell wrapper script /usr/bin/xawtv,

Binary package hint: xawtv
I'm running Edgy on x86. When I start xawtv, I get this output:

This is my first StableReleaseUpdate Proposal for Gutsy:

xawtv will not start up due to shell script syntax error (For end users this
as serious as a segfault on startup in a binary application), if the system
in question is equipped with a NVidia graphics
Running gutsy amd64, nvidia-glx-new on an 8800 GTX and an OnAir HDTV-GT
USB capture card. I did read somewhere that the OnAir card wasn't
supported, but that was in Edgy. I can't confirm that it's working at
all in Gutsy because, well, I don't know how to confirm it other than to
use xawtv and

This bug was marked expired today. However, since the last activity I
have helped several people involved in the zoneminder project using
ubuntu with this bug. It is still unpatched, and still a problem. The
wrapper script is a viable patch, so why not use it before letting the
bug die on the
I agree with houstonbofh, if the solution is to simply add a wrapper
script, it should be done before closing this bug... MOTUs? :)

What about adding a wrapper script that adds -nodga by default if an
nvidia driver is detected?

One more on Feisty with nvidia 7xxx graphics. Easy workaround (-nodga)
that is not trivial to find. I am surprised that this bug has been
around so long with no change.

Same problem with feisty, AMD64, nvidia 7600GS and Pinnacle pctv card (BT878).
Error message when starting xawtv in a terminal :

I can reproduce this on latest Feisty. It does work with the -nodga
option. I believe it's related to the nvidia-glx drivers.

Thank you for your bug report.
Can you still reproduce this? If so, does it go away if you run xawtv
with the -nodga option?
