Hey guys. I got an interesting problem. I'm currently running a Phenom II x4 system on an ASUS 790FX board with an XFX Radeon HD 4870 1GB using ATIs FGLRX (Cat 9.8 ) with Ubuntu Jaunty x64.
I just purchased a "new" tv tuner card, the ASUS/Gateway combo-210e PCIe card. Now I know that Linux has poor support for all PCIe tuner cards, but this is a little troubling. My issue is that having the tuner card in my pc when booting, I get an FGLRX conflict. It is as if FGLRX is trying to apply the driver to the tv tuner card.
My 4870 is running on 05:00.0 and I'm getting an error on boot about device 06:00.0 not being found by FGLRX. I chose the edit configuration option on the safe mode VGA driver boot, and found a reference to the 06:00.0 as an FGLRX device, and I removed that (obviously leaving the device at 05:00.0 alone). However, the problem still persists.
My Ubuntu machine works perfectly fine without the card installed. Any ideas?
