[mythtv-users] ATI 3D Rage II+ GTB (GFX) w/ AIW 7500 (Tuner)

 Greetings,

 I couldn't find information on such a setup anywhere on here. I'm running
X 4.3.0 and used 'XFree86 -configure' to setup the initial config file.

 I ended up with Card0 (3D Rage II+ 215GTB [Mach64 GTB]), which is a PCI
card. Card1 is an ATI Radeon RV200 QW [Radeon 7500] (All in Wonder).
Obviously, I wish I had done more studying before purchasing the AIW ...
But I'm stuck with it. ;) I'm using the GATOS project for support of the
AIW and I've managed to get video capturing working using the ATI Viewer
program supplied with that project.

 When I load up MythTV's setup program and go to 4. Inputs, it seg faults
and complains about the /dev/video0 device not supporting a certain call.
This was while I was using the Radeon as my GFX + Tuner card.  Now I'm
trying to get an older Rage II card working as my primary display...
Without much luck.

 Does anyone have a working XF86Config I can use as an example?
Particularily for an AIW in tuner-only mode. Should I not even bother
loading the AIW into my X Config and only use it for video capture?

 Is this even possible? The AIW /can/ be used as a tuner, right? :)

 Thanks in advance for any assistance!
