Hi, I will answer where I can. > - How can I know if the tuner in the card is a TEMIC or a PHILIPS ? This is one area where the Win95 driver helps. However, I see you are using 2.2.7. This comes with a rather old bt848 driver. The latest bt848 driver (which is part of 3.0-current has much better Hauppauge Tuner detection. > at boot time the kernel tell me something about the card, sure, but > *everytime* it is *different* Sounds like the i2c bus is giving strange results on your card. The 2.2.7 driver uses the i2c bus to detect the card type and tuner type. If all i2c addresses respond, it can assume it is an Intel card. > -In the last bt848 driver I found, a file is missing : opt-bktr.h, > I had to backtrack to the vanilla code of 2.2.7.

You need to add the following line to /sys/i386/conf/options.i386 OVERRIDE_CARD opt_bktr.h OVERRIDE_TUNER opt_bktr.h Get these files from the 'current sources' brooktree848.c brktree.h ioctl_bt848.h > -How do I know that the fxtv/driver recognize the DSP chip supposed > to give me stereo NICAM sound ? It is on the board. use the dmesg command. I have this on my machine. bktr0: <BrookTree 848> rev 0x12 int a irq 18 on pci0.13.0 Intel Smart Video III/VideoLogic Captivator PCI, <none> tuner. You will see a variation on this. It will say MSP3400 or something. However, the current driver cannot actually select Stereo Sound. Just mono sound will be heard.
