After installing the at1.2 drivers, tv sort of works with awtv, but not kwintv and suse still does not auto-detect it. O also can't get it to recognize my cable, all i get is static with no sound. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
I have a 32 MB ATI Rage 128 Pro All-in-wonder running on my SuSE 8 box. I can't seem to get SuSE to recognize it though. I would appreciate any help I can get.
I'm sorry I can't be any help on the config, since I use[d] an older, separate TV card, and I haven't even set it up since getting SuSE 8. I did have it sorta working in 7.3. What I did want to point out, however, is that you may have more than one problem. I don't have cable or satellite TV, just good ole "rabbit-ears", TV-top antenna. When I tried with the TV card, I'd get blankness or a screenful of static. Apparently, the signal was not strong enough. In other words, the tuner on the card was not sufficiently sensitive to capture a usable picture signal, whereas my TVs were (relatively) fine. Just for the heck of it, I hooked up an X-10 camera (used for surveillance/security) and instantly got a picture. The X-10 signal was strong enough, and the broadcast TV signals (as captured by my rabbit-ear antennae... was not. I keep telling myself I'm going to get cable or satellite, but this might be one more argument against that little extravagance. :-) If you were in-or-near Ottawa, Canada, I'd offer to lend you my X-10 camera stuff, just to prove the concept or to eliminate one possible point of failure. Good luck. /kevin
