[linux-dvb] Re: insmod problem with 1.0.1 + fglrx/v4l questions

hi,

the fglrx-driver was the problem. dga-support is still broken in version 3.2.8 
in this driver.
this help me to use kvdr/xawtv without crashing.
Section "Module"
...
    SubSection  "extmod"
      Option    "omit xfree86-dga"   # don't initialise the DGA extension
    EndSubSection
...
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier                          "ATI Graphics Adapter"
    Driver                              "fglrx"
...
# === Video Overlay for the Xv extension ===
    Option "VideoOverlay"               "on"
...
EndSection
