Thanks for the feedback, I have tried to supply everything you have asked for. I have not yet opened up the notebook - will leave that to last if possible.

Inf included.It can be downloaded here: http://www.pearzoo.co.za/gup/filez/ttv400x.tar.gz Here are the video devices and the error when I try to access one: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -la /dev/vi* crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 2008-04-08 11:55 /dev/video0 crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 16 2008-04-08 11:55 /dev/video16 crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 24 2008-04-08 11:55 /dev/video24 crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 32 2008-04-08 11:55 /dev/video32 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /dev/video0 > /dev/null cat: /dev/video0: No such device or address Here are the errors recorded in /var/log/messages when I try to load cx18 with cardtype 2 and 3: Apr 8 11:16:12 peter-laptop kernel: [ 4895.408000] cx18: Start initialization, version 0.1.0 Apr 8 11:16:12 peter-laptop kernel: [ 4895.408000] cx18-0: Initializing card #0 Apr 8 11:16:12 peter-laptop kernel: [ 4895.408000] cx18-0: User specified Hauppauge HVR-1600 card Apr 8 11:16:12 peter-laptop kernel: [ 4895.408000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:06:09.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 21 Apr 8 11:16:12 peter-laptop kernel: [ 4895.408000] allocation failed: out of vmalloc space - use vmalloc=<size> to increase size.
