It says on the largest chip of the small video capture card Bt??????. Mine is an older card, so it has a different set of numbers than what you might find around now. Here's the site I found that gives me some direction on the use of Hauppage Bt848 series card in Linux: http://www.dis.uniroma1.it/~iocchi/bt848/ And here's a good FAQ that explains a lot about the use of Brooktree technology in video capture cards and what can be done with them: http://www.tv-cards.com/FAQ.htm#0 I can't wait to install mine and see what I can do with it... :-D T On Wednesday 06 November 2002 03:58 pm, you wrote: > This is all sounding fairly encouraging.

XawTV is always installed from the start.
