Hi again, I've some improvements on this. I didn't get a reply yet, & don't think i can succeed on myself.. Anyway, hope someone will get on it for me soon. Here's what i've done : - I think i need DGA support _or_ framebuffer driver working. Not both. Am i wrong? - I enabled DGA support. Both Kwintv & xawtv stopped complaining about dga & Framebuffer address. - Now xawtv shows some horizontal lines on whole screen. (Not only inside the xawtv window) It seems to display the tv channels tiled, in a very bad quality. - I can change the capture setting from overlay to grabdisplay, and then displaying in the window goes fine. But performance is very bad. Sth like slow-motion. It crashes when i make it full-screen. And when i change the channel, it goes again to overlay mode.. So, can anyone tell me what my problem is? TIA, oeren@ykb.com : Hi, I've a set of problems, which i guess are related. I use Suse 8.1 with XFree86 4.2.0, on an IBM Netvista machine. It has Intel 82810a graphic controller chipset on it. The problems are explained below. I also included parts from Sax.log & XFree86.0.log at the bottom. TIA, 1. When i try to make a Sax config. Sax sees my monitor & video card undefined. When i click Finalize at Sax, it says : (EE) Problem parsing the config file (EE) Error from xf86HandleConfigFile() I get this error everytime, even if i do no modification. 2. When i start KWinTV, these errors occur : WARNING: Your X-Server has no DGA support. WARNING: couldn't find framebuffer base address, try manual configuration ("v4l-conf -a <addr>") I can scan & find channels, i can hear sounds correctly, but can only see a black screen on each. 3. With xavtv, it's the same. Sounds ok, but screens not. Xawtv gives these errors : This is xawtv-3.76, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.19-4GB) WARNING: Your X-Server has no DGA support. WARNING: couldn't find framebuffer base address, try manual configuration ("v4l-conf -a <addr>") /root/.xawtv:15: syntax error config: invalid value for input: (null) valid choices for "input": "Television", "Composite1", "S-Video" ioctl: VIDIOCCAPTURE(on): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOCCAPTURE(off): Invalid argument 4. I try v4l-config to solve this framebuffer thing, but it gives these errors : v4l-conf: using X11 display :0.0 WARNING: Your X-Server has no DGA support. mode: 1024x768, depth=24, bpp=32, bpl=4096, base=unknown /dev/video0 [v4l2]: ioctl VIDIOC_QUERYCAP: Invalid argument WARNING: couldn't find framebuffer base address, try manual configuration ("v4l-conf -a <addr>") /dev/video0 [v4l]: configuration done
