I've got a matrox g450 etv card. For some reason I'm unable to get the framebuffer drivers loaded, and thus cannot capture video with the mgatv v4l driver. Here is what I get in the syslog when matroxfb_base is loaded: Aug 28 16:09:40 pasta ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:01:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level,= low) -> IRQ 16 Aug 28 16:09:40 pasta matroxfb: Matrox G450 detected Aug 28 16:09:40 pasta matroxfb: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -1 The modules do remain loaded though. This is what lspci -v has to say: 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400 AGP = (rev 82) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: Matrox Graphics, Inc. Marvel G450 eTV Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 16 Memory at ee000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) Memory at e8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=3D16K] Memory at e9000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=3D8M] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [f0] AGP version 2.0 Here is my kernel info: Linux pasta 2.6.8.1 #4 Sat Aug 21 18:43:24 IDT 2004 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP = 2400+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux The kernel is a vanilla tree. Gentoo's dev sources, which have some patches, also had the same issues and I thought that they were to blame initially. So far I've found no mention of a similar problem via google or on the mailing lists. The card is from ebay. Could it be a hardware problem? VGA output works well, with the XFree mga driver. I don't have the output breakout cable braid (replacement on the way), so i can't say much about tv out, etc. Well, that's about all the info I know to give you in advance.
