ASUS V7100

Hello,
I hope that someone have some experience with this card, or have any hints 
to how I can get the tuner-part of it working.
I have a ASUS V7100 card. This is the info from the webshop:
Asus AGP V7100 GeForce2 MX 32MB DeLuxe C
(7100DELUX COMBO) Tv-Out,TV-Tuner Retail
I haven't found out which decoder chip is used in it...
I now want to get the tuner-part working in RHFC3. It works well as a 
video card.
I downloaded  rivatv-0.8.5 and compiled, but during the 'make install' I got 
the following output:

-----

Creating video devices. mknod /dev/video0 c 81 0

chmod: cannot access `/dev/video0': No such file or directory
RivaTV installed.
To load RivaTV, login as root and `modprobe rivatv`.

modprobe rivatv did not give any messages, but starting xawtv, I get this:
-----
This is xawtv-3.94, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.10-1.741_FC3)

My kernel is 2.6.10-1.741_FC3, running on a PIIIMMX 866MHz with 768MB memory.
Before I found rivatv, which I believe should work with my card, I fiddled 
around with bttv, and via some tutorials I found on the net, I loaded the 
following modules:

   modprobe i2c-core i2c_debug=1

   modprobe i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1

   modprobe videodev

   modprobe bttv
Before loading the rivatv module, I tried to remove some of them:
   rmmod bttv
   rmmod video_buf
   rmmod v412_common (didn't succeed).
The two latter onces where showed as "used by bttv", but when i removed bttv, 
they showed as used by '0'.
The lsmod now show, among others, these modules:
Module                  Size  Used by
saa7113h               10908  0
tvmixer                 5808  0
tvaudio                21408  0
tuner                  16808  0
rivatv                 80280  0
v4l2_common             5825  0
btcx_risc               4681  0
videodev                9537  1 rivatv
i2c_algo_bit            8393  1 rivatv
I also tried to reboot, to see if that unloaded any modules that shouldn't be 
there, but it didn't seem to make any difference. I see that there are two more 
modules loaded (they probably were there before reboot, just that I didn't see 
them):

i2c_viapro              7245  0

i2c_core               20801  1 i2c_viapro
and after 'modprobe rivatv' they are used like this:
i2c_viapro              7245  0
i2c_core               20801  7 saa7113h,tvmixer,tvaudio,tuner,rivatv,i2c_algo_bit,i2c_viapro
I appreciate any suggestions... :)
