I know this has been covered before but I've never seen a
definitive answer, so I'll post again. Before I cripple you with
inlined configuration files, I'll ask my questions:
Does xawtv (v4l, and whatever else I need to watch TV on
my display) support my card? What do I need to do to get it
working?
Ok, now the details...
I am unable to run xawtv using an ATI AIW Rage 128 Pro 32Mb.
I get the following:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
% xawtv
This is xawtv-3.54, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.7-10)
can't open /dev/video0: No such device
v4l2: open /dev/video0: No such device
v4l: open /dev/video0: No such device
no video grabber device available
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I am running RH 7.2 (fresh install). My XF86Config-4 file looks like:
