Hi there! I'm totaly new to ubuntu, just istalled it because a friend
told me this distro really rocks and I'm searching for the ideal OS to
work with both, my G3 powerbook and my HP Pavillion Home PC.
So I really like what I got installed on the Pavillion, it's by far the
best distro I saw up to the moment, lot's of things work out of the
box...wow
But I gut a problem with the tv card. I tried to insall tvtime, I get
video (that's much more with this app than I got with sarge) but I get
no sound. Xawtv the same thing (So this app worked under Sarge, but the
video output from ubuntu is better) no sound.
I tried to disable esound, no change, didn't work. tvtime says it can't
open /dev/mixer. xawtv doesn't complain at all, they just do no sound.
I found on google an article from a lucky person who had xawtv with
sound support running out of the box, but he had the problem that his
other sounds didn't work anymore, because the tvcard also loads as
soundcard and the tvcard got loaded first in /etc/modules. So he flipped
the to drivers and now both is working.
I had I look in /etc/modules, but it doesn't seem to load a tvcard sound
at all, there are just a view entries. Has someone got suggestions what
I can do to get these Apps running?
Thanks a lot,
Rainer
