RE: [SLE] XFree86 4.0.3 and ATI All-in-Wonder Pro
I almost have it working now. I made a mistake when I extracted the binary drivers. The extractor automatically defaults to root. I just moved the drivers over to the /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers directory and the multimedia drivers to the multimedia directory. Now XV is loading fine and recognizing that I have a ATI All in Wonder Pro card. Now the problem is when it goes to load the bttv driver it errors out. However, I do not think this is the problem. My question is will GATOS work with the new drivers?

I am using the ati drivers. I installed the drivers exactly as stated on the website to unpack them to /usr and restart X.
Ok, in the device section related to your video card of your /etc/X11/XF86config what do you use for the option Driver, ati or r128? Some more questions: What kernel version are you using and what happens when you run v4l-conf? That doesn't matter if it complains about beeing unable to open /dev/video. I've got the same answer here and I am able to launch XawTV to watch TV. If you still can't run XawTV, may I suggest you that you try to compile GATOS as I said previously. That will build xatitv wich will normally work perfectly provided that your card is not equipped with a Rage Theater (IIRC All-in-Wonder Pro are not).
