Description Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-05-02 03:43:56 UTC
Ok, I'm really not sure where to start tracing this down.
I've got a new Via machine, with the CLE266 chipset, and it uses the via unichrome drivers.

I've got a ATI TV Wonder Pro (uses the cx88 drivers, works fine on another system with nvidia gfx drivers) as my input. 

Using xawtv, I just get a black screen, unless I pass the "-noxv-video" option.

Comment 1 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-05-03 03:02:34 UTC
Just adding the x11 driver folk, since the unichrome driver is their doing, and I'm suspecting this is a bug in the X unichrome drivers, not xawtv.
Comment 2 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-29 17:52:42 UTC
This is unichrome drive junk. Not xawtv.
Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-01 19:54:50 UTC
Zzzz... If you still have issues w/ current xf86-video-via ebuild, reopen this bug.
