I'm new to Linux, and am trying to get my Capture Card working on 11.04.

The only command that I know to run to find out any information is lspci, which tells me that I have

02:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23885 PCI Video and Audio Decoder (rev 04)

I've looked at using Me TV, but haven't worked out how to configure it for my card, or what I need to do to get it running.

I'm not fussed on what software I use to run the Capture Card, but I've currently got only Me TV installed.

Edit: When I run tvtime, I get the following errors:

videoinput: Cannot open capture device /dev/video0: No such file or directory
mixer: find error: Success
mixer: Can't open mixer default, mixer volume and mute unavailable.
mixer: Can't open device default/Line, mixer volume and mute unavailable.
Segmentation fault
