Both in portage. > > I tried xmltv just to scan the channels with a vanilla Linux kernel > 2.6.16, but xmltv seems not to understand my card (or vice > versa)...or the version of the portage tree is outdated ? Dont know... xmltv has no connection with your tv card. xmltv downloads programme listings, but it doesn't tune your card. It tells you what is on TV, but doesn't play it for you. -- Nick Rout -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
