anyone familiar with xwatv?

[Scott Howell]

Folks,

Trying to get back to a project from sometime back. I have been mucking 
about with trying to get xwatv working on this box. Well I have an ATI 
all-in-wonder card so why not.
In any case I tried running fbtv, but it seems to launch a program 
called v4l-conf which gives me the following error.

v4l-conf: using framebuffer device /dev/fb0
mode: 640x480, depth=8, bpp=8, bpl=640, base=0xd4000000
can't open /dev/video0: No such device

The interesting part is that in fact /dev/video0 does exist and the 
permissions are,

crw-rw----    1 root     video     81,   0 Feb  6  2003 /dev/video0
which seems to be fine. So anyone have any thoughts? I'd sure appreciate 
it. I like to catch some news programs from time to time so thought it 
would be nice to set this up here instead of having a dedicated tv or 
something useless like that.

tnx
Scott
