Hi All

I am trying to install a new zoneminder server, but I cannot get it to recognise my saa7130 card!

I am using Centos5 with a 2.6.18 kernel, and lspci shows all 8 of the "Philips Semiconductors SAA7130 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev 01)" chips, but there is no enties in dmesg regarding the card at all.

Also, I cannot find any saa7134.ko anywhere in the kernel source.

Has this driver been removed from the standard kernel? Does anyone have an 8-port saa7130 working, and could point me in the right direction?

Can anyone offer any help in getting this to install?

Thanks in advance
Phil.

I've helped people get capture cards working with my DVD. I can try and help you with yours if you put the server on a public ip and pm me login info. I've looked up your card and it looks like people have it working in 7.10 and 8.04 ubuntu, didn't see centos.

The only thing I could dig up was this,

"I just installed the centosplus kernel on a freshly installed C5 box, and toracat is correct. It does contain the saa7134 module. Works great!"

I'm not sure if that's your card.

I agree you should try upgrading to a CentosPlus kernel, as they are a bit newer and have more modules.
And then reboot and check your dmesg and ls -l /dev/vid*

Thank you both very much!

I have upgraded to the Plus kernel - and I now have video0-8 devices!

I will now install zoneminder and see if it all works!

Thanks again!
