Hello, i have an ATI Radeon All in wonder 9000 If (RV250) (AGP) and am also unable to use xatitv , which fails with same errormessage as happened to Benjamin Mesing.
I saw Gatos homepage, which lists Radeon 7500 and 8500 as working, but says 9700 is not (yet) supported. So whether my card is supposed to be supported, i don't know, but certainly Benjamin's card did use to work, so should be supported. Now that these cards are relatively a bit older, maybe nobody is using this package anymore, i read even maintainer does not have such a card anymore. This can be tested, in first place by looking at popcon, and if that shows no users, then by introducing a deliberate bug, that users can fix easily themselves (perhaps build a version that requires some file to be present), so that if there are any users, they would not be inconvenienced too much. Goal of this is not to remove unused software, but to correctly show that these cards are not supported in Debian, because that would prevent disappointment (reason i bought this card is that i thought i could use it in Debian). Please do not bother to try to fix this bug if i am the only one interested in that ; it would be cheaper to buy some other card. have fun !
