Gateway Destination STB Video Rage II Tuner
Try Nvida drivers from their website.

There's not even linux tuner support for this card which sucks (it has X support however). If anyone knows of any NT, 2000 or XP drivers or how to hack the 95 drivers to work in NT, 2000 or XP, I'd really appreciate it. |

I have an old g6450 and it oiginally had a stb4400 and stb
tv/radio. I ha have since upgraded to a Visiontek 420 video card and it works well the stb tv adapter. you can still download drivers from Gateway. my tuner is brooktree. As far linux, SUSE 8.1 supports stbtv. drivers are a pain to load in Windows haven' loaded windows xp. apparently, the stb old stuff does not support overlays.

And the latest news was they ceased operation with no website. The research that I have done on this card has shown me that the video tuner hardware is the same as ATI used before the rage theater chip came out. I tried (in vain) to load ATI drivers just to see if the tuner part would kick in, but it was no luck, nothing happened. I tried to see if there were any matching files between the two products but they must have named them differently. I posted on the GATOS website (they make TV drivers for ATI cards under linux) but no one replied with any info about getting the tuner drivers to work on other products (this was about 3 or 4 months ago) I just thought maybe someone else would have an idea. wrote in message . ..

This card has 2 PCI ID's
109e:2164 Brooktree 2164 VGA ( Bt2164AHF Chip ) 109e:2165 Brooktree 2165 MediaStream controller The onboard chips a Philips TDA9850T Audio Brooktree Bt829akpf Video Decoder Front End 4032 FY5 Temic 3X7 004 Tuner box The BTV linux drivers do not support the bt829. I'm not sure what the 2165 connects to, but I suspect the 829 chip. This card is not a stand-alone tuner so it is a little more complex than the generic btv stuff. It shares most all of the same hardware as the non rage theater ATI All In Wonder cards except for the BT2164 vga chip. wrote in message . ..
