Hi all,
I’ve got a problem to get the tuner of my Pinnacle TV (PCI) card working: the channel scan always says “no signal”.
dmesg | grep bttv says:
6.490696] bttv: driver version 0.9.18 loaded

817.801298] bttv0: PLL: 28636363 => 35468950 … ok
To avoid a few basic questions:
Yes, the antenna cable is plugged in ;).
Yes, it worked with 10.3 and kdetv (KDE3).
Yes, it works under Win.
I can tune the card under Win, reboot into Linux and can watch this one tuned channel in tvtime: video and sound are there.
It also doesn’t work when running as root (as of a potential issue with permissions).
Any idea how to track this down ? Any know differences between 10.3 and 11.2 ?
Thanks & regards,
Steve.
