It could be a TV tuner, but most likely its so old and rare that no linux driver type has written a driver for it.
Can you take a photo of the card? Specifically looking for a chip with bttv on it. You may save hours and hours of time by buying a new supported hauppauge tuner card. -----Original Message----- From: Barry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, 13 August 2006 1:17 p.m. To: [email protected] Subject: A 'new' /old video card Hi all I have been given a Kasan WinX Pioneer IV card which is now driving my monitor at 1024x768 15bpp. It also has video in, video out, antenna and svhs? out and possibly a tv tuner. The 1 advantage so far is it gives ma an extra 64 meg of ram. I gather it is a very old card. lspci -v reports 00:09.0 VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems TGUI 9660/938x/968x (rev d3) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 17 Memory at cfc00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M] Memory at cfbf0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] Memory at cf400000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M] Expansion ROM at cfbe0000 [disabled] [size=64K] lshw reports *-display description: VGA compatible controller product: TGUI 9660/938x/968x vendor: Trident Microsystems physical id: 9 bus info: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:09.0 version: d3 size: 4MB width: 32 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: vga bus_master resources: iomemory:cfc00000-cfffffff iomemory:cfbf0000-cfbfffff iomemory:cf400000-cf7fffff irq:17 Google has not helped me much. Should I be able to output to a tv with this card? No joy from the video out plug on my 1st test. Am I missing drivers for output or tv tuning etc. All advice welcome. TIA Barry
