Hello to All:
I am a Linux newbie who purchased a CardBus TV Tuner card which works fine in Windows 2000 on my laptop. But I have not been able to get it to work in Fedora Core 4 Linux. The OS recognizes the chip as an SAA7134 but I cannot get it to work. When loading the driver without options, dmesg tells me that my card does not contain an eeprom which can identify it, and that I have to specify what card and tuner type it is as options. From reading your web sites I have come to the conclusion that the stock driver that comes with Fedora Core 4 does not support my card. I believe it is a Sedna/MuchTV PC TV Cardbus TV/Radio (this is listed as card #79 on your list). However, my current driver only lists 51 card types. Can I simply upgrade the saa7134 driver, or do I have to upgrade the kernel as well? I have never upgraded a Linux kernel before, and am a bit apprehensive about doing it. Is there a substitute card type supported by my driver which will work, or must I upgrade the driver and possibly the kernel? Let me know what has to be done.
Thanks in advance.
