    A list of my pci devices includes my wintv 350 card. So, when I enter xawtv
    on the command line the error messages say dev/video0 is either missing or
    can't open /video0.

    What can I do to get xawtv to find my card and what can I put in /dev/video0
    or is it supposed to be done automatically?
