Greetings: Am messing with the Gatos Groups avview and km. Have avview working OK, but got into trouble with the capture routine km and would like to uninstall it..
I found the modules it created and rm'd them but dmesg now reports "Linux Video Capture Interface, V1.0" several times and I can't find what file is doing this.. It's not in the kernel because I can boot from both the HD or floppy and get the same dmesg report.. It _has_ to be somewhere on the HD - but where??? I'm booting command line only so X11 shouldn't have anything to do with it, IMHO. :^)... Of course I've grep'd so many times I'm blue in the face.. If the routine is in a binary file - am I stuck??
Any suggstions?? Anyone run into this before??
Is it possible that what you are seeing in dmesg is actually
"Linux video capture interface: v1.00"
(note the differences in capitalization - this is from my dmesg file on a vidcap host I have)?
If so, it is a sort of section header for the v4l modules. On my system, it opens the section that reports installation of the bttv driver. For help, you need to quote the 2 lines that precede it, and the group that follows it, in dmesg. Since I use a Hauppauge vidcap card, not the ATI vidcap stuff that GATOS supports (kind of), I don't know what you might see in this section of dmesg. But the details should help.
Also, I forget how Slackware loads modules. (You may recall that I use Debian.) If your floppy and HD boots both mount the same root filesystem, and both use the same kernel, then the init process will try to load the same modules either way.
