Okay, I tried it with xawtv, which locks up and will not exit. It said that my X
Server doesn't have DGA support so I ran 'v4l-conf -a 0xe80'. That didn't do
much, but after a few times of that it said it couldn't open /dev/video.
It is there. I removed it then ran the MAKEDEV script again and it still can't
open it. Is there anything special I should be looking for in the xawtv output?
Thanks
