Jamie. we seem to be following each other around the mailing lists. CLUG, mythtv, now here. You seem to have all the modules loaded, what is not working?
is there a /dev/video/video0?
does xawtv -c /dev/video/video0 give any output?

Output of xawtv -c /dev/video0

I've been working on this for several days but do not seem to make any
progress.
I have a Pinnacle PCTV Stereo card which is based on the Philips saa7134
chip. I have recomipled my kernel (2.6.12-gentoo-r6) to include the
saa7134 module and i2c support as a module.

lsmod output :

Relevant entries added to my /etc/modules.conf after modules-update is run:
(I am in New Zealand and know that card number and tuner number are
correct as I have had this card working in Mandrake 10.1 a week or so ago)

### modules-update: start processing /etc/modules.d/saa7134
options saa7134 card=26 tuner=5 oss=1

### modules-update: end processing /etc/modules.d/saa7134

### modules-update: start processing /etc/modules.d/tda9887
options tda9887 qss=0

### modules-update: end processing /etc/modules.d/tda9887

My Kernel .config file can be found at
http://drgnfire.orcon.net.nz/kernel_config

I'd appreciate any feedback on what I might be doing wrong that is causing
the TV Card not to work.

Once I have the card working my aim is to build a MythTV box using this
card, so any pointers on this would also be appreciated (especially from
anyone in New Zealand who has experience in this area).

Thanks

Jamie
