Re: cx878_41 ?...help needed with Mercurial

Mike,
If I remember quite well your card has a cx24106 tuner / frontend.

That means:

1. Even if bttv recognizes it, it will be unsupported, as a new frontend 
driver would be necessary to be written, and Conexant is not very helpful
in those cases.

A. Its a cx24110 there already is a driver.


2. Even if it is recognized by bttv, neither the "pure" Mercurial tree would 
help, nor the Mercurial tree with the implemented cx878 tree.

A how do you know?

3. As I told you already, the cx878 driver runs, but it is not finished yet.
So it does not help at all to fiddle around with it. You won't neither get a 
picture nor sound even if you were running a supported card.

A  how do you know?

4. I already asked you to send in a dmesg, but you simply ignored that 
request. Why please?

Cheers

Uwe

Uwe all i really want is some help with Mercurial to merge the driver , or 
whatever , as it exists.  I'm doing it purely for interests sake and as far 
as I am aware I am still able to decide what to do with my own time.
I have no intention of interfering, demanding support or anything else.

Rgds

Mike
