+<PRE>Hi,
+
+I reported this problems with Mageia1 last October and if you follow the
+thread you will see that a temporary fix was found for the problem[1]:
+
+Le 2011-10-13 14:07, Marc Par&#233; a &#233;crit :
+ &gt; I have a TV card (PCI) and a USB webcam. If I restart my Mageia, the
+ &gt; TV card no longer works. I then have to go into TVtime.xml (I use TV
+ &gt; time to view my TV) and then modify this line that I have included in
+ &gt; the file: &lt;option name=&quot;V4LDevice&quot; value=&quot;/dev/video0&quot;/&gt;
+ &gt; or
+ &gt; &lt;option name=&quot;V4LDevice&quot; value=&quot;/dev/video1&quot;/&gt;
+ &gt;
+ &gt; Is there anyway to prevent the video call from changing at reboots?
+ &gt; I just bought a webcam for my 78 year old mother with the same TV
+ &gt; card and I wouldn't want her to go through the same procedure each
+ &gt; time she re-boots her Mageia.
+ &gt;
+ &gt; Thanks for any help.
+ &gt;
+ &gt; Marc
+ &gt;
+
+Just to let people know that this problem is still happening with Mageia2.
+
+However, this time, Mageia2 picks the webcam as the recognized soundcard
+by the system and it becomes impossible to use any sound on the box.
+
+The fix: re-boot the computer WITHOUT the USB webcam. The TV card will
+be properly recognized as well as the soundcard. Plug in the webcam
+after the computer has booted.
+
+The drawback: If you reboot your computer, you will have to unplug your
+webcam and wait till your box has completed the reboot.
+
+I hope this will help anyone with the same setup, or, maybe someone on
+this list could find a permanent fix, or, should I submit this as a bug
+right away? You should read through the original post for Mageia1, it
+may give you more information.
+
+It would be nice if Mageia could properly recognize all devices and not
+force users to unplug a webcam after every re-boot.
+
+Cheers,
+
+Marc
