Hi All,

I am struggling to get the Pinnacle pctv pro card to work on my
Redhatlinux 9, kernel version 2.4.25. Basically I was trying to get
the radio portion of this card to work on linux.
A very strange thing. If I go to windows and start pinnacle radio then
I boot into linux, atleast FM radio works. But after power up without
going to windows I come directly to linux, then FM radio does not
work. I was wondering why ?

I did a modprobe bttv. Following are the messages from dmesg :

bttv: driver version 0.9.12 loaded
bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture
bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).

bttv0: PLL: 28636363 => 35468950 . ok

I verified by giving other card name also, I found card type 39 most
suitable.
But still my problem is whatever radio station is tuned in windows, I
can listen to the only that station in linux, I cannot tune in any new
station in linux also every time I power on I have to go to windows [I
hate this] then come to linux.

Any solution please ?

Thanks,
