No wonder that you don't find bttv drivers in your kernel configuration
that easily. For a Hauppauge WinTV PCI you'll need the following kernel
configuration:
Device Drivers-> Multimedia devices -> Video for Linux -> compile that
as module
Device Drivers-> Multimedia devices -> Video for Linux -> Video for
Linux -> BT848 Video for Linux -> compile that as module
Device Drivers-> Multimedia devices -> Video for Linux -> Video for
Linux -> Conexant 2388x (bt878 successor) support -> compile that as
module
Win TV PCI either used a BT848 or a BT878 chipset. Since you compiled
both modules you'll be save in any case.
The BT848 device driver module will be called bttv - aaahhh HERE it
is ;-)
I am using a WinTV PCI myself - if you'll have another question don't
hesitate to ask.
