Hi:
'lspc1' returns "Multimedia controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown
device 4d52". The unknown device is a TV Wonder 550 that has been
installed and works properly in WindowsXP.
'lsmod' returns no bttv or bt878 drivers.
As far as I can tell, from the ATI site and the tvtimes site, it should
be using the bttv driver, but this is not entirely clear to me from
their documentation.
GATOS is not applicable.
Can someone tell me how to get this TV Tuner card installed and working
in Fedora Core 6? Do I have to modprobe? What?
There is generally no harm in loading kernel modules for experimentation.
For example, in your case it would be fine to:
# modprobe bttv
# dmesg | tail -20
and see if the driver finds the device.
If not, try the other ones.
Its easy to spot when a driver recognizes a device. If it does not,
dmesg simply says driver loaded.
If the driver does list information about the device, then you need to
make an appropriate entry in /etc/modprobe.conf to make sure it comes up
properly on future reboots.
