Just before I go to sleep quick update:

I have read somewhere that the beuty of Linux is that you dont have to remeber commands becoase you can always refer to detaild help so I got hoocked.
I went to read help on mplayer..... there is more text there then i have read in my life, on top of that I have no idea what it is about.
Anyhow, there is no spellchecker on TC or I haven't figured it aut yet, so I don't know what I am talking about, but when I boot with my camera pluged in and I try to watch TV Iget following:

And mplayer is running with black screen.
If I boot with camera unpluged I get

When I wake up I am going to study mplayer's guide. I'll keep you updated.

By TV I mean analog TV from arial and computer TV card. So I find about TV Time and tryed to install it (I have installed aspell.tcz and it looks like my English improuved dramaticaly).
In order to compile it I have installed every C or C++ compiler and library and python and you name it and now I am stacked:

tc@box:~/tvtime/tvtime-1.0.1$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

So I did and it says:

configure:2344: $? = 1
configure:2367: checking for C compiler default output file name
configure:2370: gcc    conftest.c  >&5
gcc: error trying to exec 'as': execvp: No such file or directory
configure:2373: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h.  */

I have looked for as but I could only find as86. Then I thought: no prpblem,
 I am going to change configure file to point to as86....

My question is: does anybody have beter ides?

jls:
have u installed the compiletc extension?
