Can anybody help me with this. I have even done a clean install of RH FC3 to make sure I had not screwed something up. I have no /dev/video0. I did the following: #apt-get install saa7134-kmdl-$KVER (using Jarod's variable) #apt-get install saa7134 I rebooted and when it came up I tried: #modprobe saa7134 That did not work, so I then tried, as suggested earlier: #rmmod saa7134 modprobe tuner modprobe tda9887 qss=0 modprobe saa7134 video_nr=0 I still have no /dev/video0, so xawtv or tvtime will not work. Please help. I have googled this, and I have not had any luck getting a working solution.
