I think I've made a little more progress, but I think I am still missing something.... I switched to the Open Source ATI Drivers. But there are issues with this :/ 1) I can't play Doom3, so if I want to, I have to switch drivers are restart X .... but that's not the bigger issue. tvtime loads now. I figured out what modules to load to create the /dev/video0 device tuner 64360 0 cx8800 40124 0 cx88xx 72036 1 cx8800 ir_common 39620 1 cx88xx tveeprom 20240 1 cx88xx compat_ioctl32 11072 1 cx8800 btcx_risc 7432 2 cx8800,cx88xx vivi 21716 1 video_buf 28932 3 cx8800,cx88xx,vivi videodev 30592 4 cx8800,cx88xx,vivi v4l1_compat 14340 1 videodev v4l2_common 22336 6 tuner,cx8800,cx88xx,compat_ioctl32,vivi,videodev modprobe vivi creates the device modprobe cx8800 (the bttv replacement from what I can tell) then modprove tuner ow the problem is tvtime (and xawtv) gets stuck on screen, can't kill the process, even after restarting X, the process is still in memory :/ So I am still missing something .... On the upside, I have YU12/YUY2 Overlays >From xine-check [ good ] found xvinfo: X-Video Extension version 2.2 [ good ] your Xv extension supports YV12 overlays (improves MPEG performance) [ good ] your Xv extension supports YUY2 overlays [ good ] Xv ports: RGBA RGBT RGB2 YUY2 UYVY YV12 I420 so ... it's progress ... but I don't think a step forward :/ maybe a step sideways ..... Anywho .. I am going to reboot one last time to get rid of these stuck apps and reload the fglrx driver so I can play doom3. Any more idea's would be greatly appreciated. ################################################################################# # NOTICE: The contents of this e-mail and any attachments to it may # # contain privileged and confidential information from XaeroLimit # # Industries or its affiliates.
