I have a Pinnacle PCTV card, and I just switched from Windows to Ubuntu 7.04. I found the PCTV card did not work under linux, the dmesg shows:

I tried rmmod bttv but it was refused by system which said bttv is used by bt878. How can I make this card working?

Hi Jason,

The wiki is not designed as a place to ask for help -- please use the v4l mailing list for that. See the front page for instructions. Once you have the card working (and since it's a bttv card, it shouldn't be hard -- they're really well supported), write up the details on the wiki, under bttv cards.

Cheers, Dave
