@Ndungi true one should try modprobe card=<card number> tuner=<tuner number>. That said, I was hoping there was an easier way of going about it, guess am going to pull an all nighter on this. :( @Great Minds...The TV card works very well on windows XP but I have to move it to linux now....as indicated in the ealier email, the TV card driver is a Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11), Xcess TV tuner using My TV software on windows.

Hi Guys, I have scratched nearly all the hair on my head over this, help will be greatly appreciated. I need to setup a TV card to view TV on my ubuntu 9.10 box, I have done all the setup but i still cannot get the tuner to work. Output from dmesg is as follows 16.056107] Linux video capture interface: v2.00 [ 16.131416] EXT3 FS on sda3, internal journal [ 16.251780] bttv: driver version 0.9.18 loaded [ 16.251786] bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture [ 16.251858] bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).

Has anyone been able to hack watching TV on linux and if yes, where am i going wrong. Or is this TV card completely not compatible with linux.
