I have an ATi TV Wonder PCI installed in a dual Athlon 1800MP machine. It was running Fedora Core 3 and working fine with the sound being captured by the line-in on the motherboard's sound card.
However, it was only a slave backend; and I needed it to become the master backend, so I changed upgraded the HDDs and added in a PVR-250. I also subsequently reinstalled a clean copy of Fedora Core 3, essentially following Jarod's guide. Now, there is no audio coming out of the ATI TV Wonder card. I tried plugging a set of speakers directly into the ATI's line out (where you would plug in the patch cable) and heard nothing. Any ideas? My initial guess is that there is a problem with the msp3400.o because the PVR-250 loads its own copy of the module. As a possible alternative solution, I tried to use the Alsa module snd_bt87x to capture (the ATi TV Wonder PCI *does* have a working capture card), but whenever the card is capturing, my /var/log/messages is flooded with "kernel: FIFO overrun" messages. I'm sure this is related to the snd_bt87x, because when I put snd_bt87x on my /etc/hotplug/blacklist file and reboot, the messages go away (but no sound). Any RedHat or FC3 experts know how to solve this? From my reading of the snd_bt87x source code; this error message is produced when there is "Bus Access Latency"; but I don't know what this means or how I can fix it. My questions are: 1) How do I get my TV Wonder to output sound on it's line out jack? 2) How do I solve this "FIFO overrun" issue with snd_bt87x? 3) Does anyone have an ATi TV Wonder with a PVR-250 in an Athlon SMP machine running FC3 working? Is it possible? Thanks!
