Hi

Thats my first post to this mailing-list.
First my system, then the problem:
Athlon64 3200+
64bit Gentoo, last update today
linux-2.6.7
kde-3.2.3
xorg-6.7.0
For a few days I tried to get sound with kdetv-0.8.1, linux-2.6.* and a tvcard 
powered by a saa7134 chip. But I was not successful. On the kdetv-page I 
read, that this problem should be fixed now, but there was no way to get more 
than a rush. The stations were found without problems, the picture ist really 
good, better than the one of the genuine software:-) But what ist to do to 
get sound? Which modules have to be loaded? Is arts needed? I tried it with 
the ALSA-Mixer, and the OSS-mixer, too, but there was no sound. The sound 
system is up and running, xmms is playing everything. The tunerchip is a 
tda9887 but I did not found the kernel option to activate. Is there anywhere 
a howto for kdetv? 
Any ideas on how to get the sound working?
Thank you in advance

Frank
