Description Bill Case 2007-01-02 22:44:21 UTC
Description of problem:
lspci returns "Multimedia controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown
device 4d52" The unknown device is an ATI TV Wonder 550 TV tuner card using a
Theater 550 Pro chip -- so ATI *seems* to say.

hwdata contains no such device definition.

There may be no drivers applicable to the Theater 550 pro for Linux

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
latest Fedora Core 6 release/update

How reproducible:
Every boot

Steps to Reproduce:

boot
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
no /dev/video0 or /dev/radio (for FM) produced


Expected results:

TV using tvtimes would work

Additional info:

Have had a lot of Fedora mailing list help, but nothing that solves the problem
and nothing that conclusively defines the problem.

The pci.ids file will be pulled from upstream, so please make sure that the
relevant devices are in the upstream repository found at:

  http://pciids.sourceforge.net/

Please change status back to ASSIGNED when that's done, thanks !

Comment 2 Bill Case 2007-07-20 14:55:15 UTC
Looked up "ATI TV Wonder 550" at  http://pciids.sourceforge.net/.  Could find no
definition under ATI, AMD, TV Wonder, Theater 550 or any combination of those names.

Of course, that was part of the original problem.

I didn't know where to go or what to do from that point on.

Comment 3 Karsten Hopp 2007-07-24 08:39:12 UTC
http://pciids.sourceforge.net/ has a detailled description how to submeit new
entries. 
Go to http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/iii/ , press 'New entry' and submit your pci-id:
>but please submit only accurate information – descriptions like 
>"unknown modem device" are only of a little use to anybody. Real chip names 
>and numbers are preferred over marketing names, in case you know both, please
>enclose the marketing name in square brackets like in "3c595 100BaseTX [Vortex]". 
>Please avoid repeating vendor names in device or subsystem names.

Please change state to 'ASSIGNED' when you're done so that I know when to look
out for an updated pci.ids file.

Comment 4 Bill Case 2007-07-24 13:26:56 UTC
4d52 THEATER 550 PRO PCI [ATI TV Wonder 550] has been added to the
http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/iii/  list.

At the risk of offending someone ... but this bug is important to me. Is this
issue dead?  Is there some new information required or can be given to me?

Comment 6 Karsten Hopp 2008-01-14 14:11:02 UTC
Please use the latest hwdata package from Rawhide, it should install just fine
on FC-7.
