Hi,

on my system Xawtv is installed with USE="zvbi", so that I
have `scantv' enclosed. Anyway, it doesn't work:

  # scantv
  [...]
  vbi: open failed [/dev/vbi]
  open /dev/vbi: Invalid argument
  #

I wonder how this error message could arise because of the
following:

  # dd if=/dev/vbi bs=8 count=1 | od -x
  1+0 records in
  1+0 records out
  8 Bytes (8 B) copied, 0.099231 seconds, 0.1 kB/s
  0000000 374d 1620 341e 544a
  0000010
  #

I had a look at the source code but I found the open call
parameters okay.

Any clue what could be wrong there?

Thanks in advance,

Bertram
