[linux-dvb] Pinnacle PCTV Sat and bttv/dvb-bt8xx support

[linux-dvb] Pinnacle PCTV Sat and bttv/dvb-bt8xx support

[Darshaka Pathirana]

Hi!

I am trying to get my Pinnacle PCTV Sat running but get an error when
trying to load the bttv-driver. According to [1] the card-option of
the card is 94 so i did the following:

% modprobe bttv card=94

(I also tried tuner=-1 and/or i2c_hw=1) and got the following:

Aug 23 02:02:39 grml kernel: bttv: driver version 0.9.17 loaded

The card has Conxant cx24110 Demodulator on it so I tryied to load the
"cx24110" before and afterwards. Without success.

I believe that dvb_bt8xx can not handle the unknown PCI-ID 11bd:501c /
card id=[0x501c11bd] which is completely undocumented in the whole
(google-)internet. (It's an Austrian product in case that matters.)

Is there any chance to patch the dvb_btxx so it still is can handle
this PCI-ID too? Can I give additional infos to get this card running?
