After giving up on ZM+Gentoo Im trying this liveCD. I added the options bttv tuner=-1 card=102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102 in /etc/modprobe.conf which did work in tvtime/xawtv in Gentoo, but now all I get are icons on the desktop and half a green screen, the other half it seems part of a broken image of the cam..

note... I was able to edit the file since i installed it to hd... couldent seem to unprobe the modules correctly to reprobe bttv with the right card options, so.. i installed to hd, edited the modprobe.conf file, and restarted...

ok it seems my kodicom card (i think it is) is only supported in 2.6.16.. which the live cd install didnt come with originall, urpmi-ing the new one only screws it up.. so yea with gentoo I had a image in xawtv and tvtime yet zm didnt work, now in mandriva zm works but the cam dosent... super

Yes the new ZMliveCD_1.22.2 has a 2.6.16.17 kernel so kodicom cards will (I hope) be well supported, though I do not have one to test yet.
