Dear All,

I just bought a USB tvtuner Compro VideoMate U900/U880, but I don't 
really know where the problem is but these are the things I did.

plugin the tvtuner and got this from dmesg

[4295313.806000] usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and 
address 2

That's all but none about the card.

tried lsusb and got this
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 185b:4000 Compro

Tried the usbview and got this

Tried v4l-conf and this is what I got.
v4l-conf: using X11 display :0.0
dga: version 2.0
mode: 1024x768, depth=24, bpp=32, bpl=4096, base=0xe0000000
can't open /dev/video0: No such file or directory

Even when I load the driver using. Card=19 is from 
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.saa7134.

# modprobe saa7134 card=19

Still it does not create the /dev/video0

My kernel is 2.6.12-10-386

Any Idea?
