I use an AIW 128 pro 32MB AGP and have been able to make the TV tuner work
using gatos' ati_xv/ati.2 drivers and xawtv.

You do need to use XFree 4.0.x (4.0.2 works fine).

If you have the same card, let me know as I may be able to help you get
it working, or check out <http://www.linuxvideo.org/gatos/>;

Cheers,
Bill
