[mythtv-users] ATI All-in-Wonder

[Stelios Valavanis]

oh, maybe that's my problem? one bad thing is i can't tell which card exactly 
i have. it was given to me with no docs and the card doesn't say on it though 
somebody wrote "tv wonder" on it. from looking at the ati site and gatos 
(they don't seem to confer on models) i figured it was an AIW. it's a PCI 
card with tuner and a/v in and out. it has 16M ram. all i get from /proc/pci 
is that it's an r128. any ideas on how i can tell *exactly* which card this 
is?
