I get the same problem, -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gregory Gulik Sent: Monday, May 24, 2004 11:24 AM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Re: TVtime Does tvtime work for you??? Every couple minutes the screen goes nearly black and I get the following error on the command line I ran it from: videoinput: Can't read frame. Error was: Input/output error (6989). In addition the following is logged to syslog: May 24 10:21:17 penguin kernel: bttv0: timeout: drop=100 irq=44225/44225, risc=378b207c, bits: VSYNC HSYNC OFLOW FDSR May 24 10:21:17 penguin kernel: bttv0: reset, reinitialize May 24 10:21:17 penguin kernel: bttv0: PLL can sleep, using XTAL (28636363). Changing the channel fixes it for me. I also did used to love xawtv for many of the same reasons you do and was disappointed to find it missing in FC2. I've tried the FC1 RPM as well as a copy on one of the FC2 repositories and have been able to get it to work at all. Whenever I run it I get the following: Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*" to type FontStruct X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 144 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent) Serial number of failed request: 492 Current serial number in output stream: 492 If it matters I have an NVIDIA graphics card and am running the "nv" driver.
