User experience

I have what I think is a Matrox Meteor II Multichannel card. I have had no luck getting it to work with v4l2, but here's how far I have gotten, in case it helps anyone out.

lspci gives: 

...
0000:03:01.0 ff00: Matrox Graphics, Inc. VIA Framegrabber
...

lspci -n gives: 

...
0000:03:01.0 ff00: 102b:4536
...


In order from **oldest** to **newest** here are relevant driver projects that I found. None have been updated in the last year.

The best I was able to do (as of Apr 26 2006) was:

(1) Download the latest version from the Sourceforge project CVS: 

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/meteor2mc login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/meteor2mc co meteor2mc

(2) Made some changes. My changes are contained in the following patch, produced by diff -u:

Basically, I made everything non-inline (there were recursive inline problems), changed io_remap_page_range to remap_pfn_range, changed card->pdev->slot_name to card->pdev->dev.bus_id, and modified the Makefile. Maybe I did something else too, I don't remember.


(3) Compiled on Debian with kernel linux-image-2.6.16-1-686 (and the matching kernel-headers package installed), and gcc-4.0.

(4) Tried "modprobe meteor2mc" which succeeded and left the following messages in dmsg: 

meteor2mc: Unknown symbol io_remap_page_range

meteor2mc [via_module_init]: card 0: Meteor-II/Std, IRQ 5, minor 0, 480 kB himem @ 0x3f688000 (phys)

(5) So far so good. But v4l2ucp fails with "/dev/video0 is not a V4L2 device". So it's not quite working yet.

xawtv fails with 

/dev/video0 [v4l]: ioctl VIDIOCGCAP: Invalid argument
no video grabber device available


Please be aware that I am not a kernel guy and just hacked my way through this; I had no idea what I was doing, so it's possible that some of my patches weren't right. --BayleShanks 11:24, 26 April 2006 (CEST)
