-- Make sure you have a recent 2.0.x kernel (I recommend AT LEAST 2.0.33!)
-  or a recent 2.1.x kernel.
-  Older kernels might lead to problems. 
-
-- Do NOT compile videodev into your kernel!
-  Use the module supplied with bttv.
-
-- Edit "driver/Makefile":
-
-  - If you do NOT have a Miro card:
-    Adjust TUNER to a number between 0 and 7. 
-
-    This number has the following meaning:
-
-    0: Temic PAL tuner
-    1: Philips PAL_I tuner
-    2: Philips NTSC tuner
-    3: Philips SECAM tuner
-    4: no tuner
-    5: Philips PAL tuner
-    6: Temic NTSC tuner
-    7: Temic PAL tuner
-    8: Temic 4036 FY5 NTSC tuner
-
-    The number corresponds to the number (-1) given at the GPIO port of the
-    Bt848 on Miro cards.
-
-
-  - Adjust CARD to one of the numbers below:
-
-    0: Auto-Detect
-    1: Miro
-    2: Hauppauge
-    3: STB
-    4: Intel
-    5: Diamond
-    6: AVerMedia
-    7: Matrix Vision MV-Delta
-    8: Fly Video II
-    9: TurboTV
-   10: Newer Hauppauge (Bt878)
-   11: Miro PCTV Pro
-   12: ADS Tech Channel Surfer TV (and maybe TV+FM)
-   13: AVerMedia TVCapture 98
-   14: Aimslab VHX
-   15: Zoltrix TV-Max
-
-  - You may have to adjust BTTV_MAJOR to a different number depending on your
-    kernel version. The official number 81 does not work on some setups.
-    But instead of changing it, better update to a newer kernel.
-
-  - If you have a Bt848a or Bt849 on your board you might have to
-    uncomment: -DUSE_PLL 
-
-- do a "make" in the main directory.
-
-If you have Hauppauge card read "README.HAUPPAUGE" before proceeding.
-
-- type "make ins"
-
-  This creates the bttv devices in /dev and installs the bttv module
-
-  Look in the kernel log file (/var/adm/syslog or /var/log/kernel or something
-  else depending on your /etc/syslogd.conf or just call "dmesg")
-  and see what bttv reported (lines starting with "bttv:")
-  If the installation failed and you send e-mail to me always include those
-  lines! Dumps of the insmod output alone do not help at all.
-
-- Start X11 in hi or true color mode 
-  8 bit color is also supported but really ugly!
-  (If you have an S3 card you might have to start X11 before installing
-   the module!)
-
-  If you have Motif or LessTif, "xtvscreen" in the "XTV" directory should
-  have been compiled with the "make" above.
-  Otherwise use the statically linked version which should be available 
-  on the web site you got bttv from.
-  Read the documentation in "XTV" and start xtvscreen.
-
-- make applications by typing "make" in "apps"
