I recently installed mepis 7. I have a wintv-pvr-usb2 (29032 rev d158) box. I use it for simple tv viewing on xp (works great). The box is connected to cable tv.
I cannot get the box working with xawtv, kdetv, tvtime or kmplayer. I receive the subject line in dmesg and the players report no video. wow!! Why does it work in xp and not mepis????? here is the dmesg output: .........discon then recon power.....: usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 6 pvrusb2: unregistered device video0 [mpeg] pvrusb2: unregistered device radio0 [mpeg] pvrusb2: Attempted to execute control transfer when device not ok msp3400 1-0040: chip reset failed hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 1.
