[Kwintv] No audio from kwintv

[Fernando]

Guys, I need your help. I'm not getting any audio output for KWinTV.

I'm using Mandrake 8.2 (dual-booting with Win2K), the installer detected
my pci tv card, V-Gear VCD Plus, made by www.asiamajor.com.tw, I've been
using the tv card for a year now in W2K, connected to a cable tv so the
card is confirmed to be in working order.

Xawtv was the default tv application in Mandrake 8.2 also KDE 2.2.2.
Xawtv was only displaying one program channel and no audio output. I
searched freshmeat for other software and found KWinTV, downloaded and
compiled it without errors. But I got the same results, single program
channel and no audio.

I tried testing both xawtv and kwintv installing some other package
dependencies. When I tried KWinTV again the program channels are already
ok. I am not sure which package was missing or which configuration was
incorrect from the original setup. I still have to figure out the audio
problem why there is no output. Below are dmesg (grep'd) and lsmod
outputs.

Thanks a lot, I already have a lot of linux multimedia software (xmms,
xine, mplayer) running on this machine and this TV card is the only
reason I still dual boot to Win2K. 

Regards,
Fernando
