Subject: All In Wonder Radeon and bttv module

Hi all,

I tried to use kwintv on my desktop with All in Wonder ATI Radeon AGP.

I have compiled my kernel (2.4.18) with almost all the video drivers
compiled as module. The problem is that I have tried to upload the
module bttv.o using the command

modprobe bttv

and the following messages have appeared:

/lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/kernel/drivers/media/video/bttv.o.gz:
init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
modprobe: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/kernel/drivers/media/video/bttv.o.gz failed
modprobe: insmod bttv failed

Can anyone of you help me to understand what is the problem. I think
that the default IRQ and IO ports are not correct for my video board. If
so, is it possible have the correct one?

I have tried to search on the Web and in the Linux archives to check if
these type of errors
have already been solved by someone else, but I haven't found anything.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Try adding something like this on your
/etc/modules.conf

alias char-major-81 bttv
options bttv radio=1 card=56
options tuner type=1

the card, radio and tuner values are in the linux
source tree under
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/CARDLIST

If you don't have the kernel's source, let me know I'll
send you thta file
