New member, trying to setup a Pinnacle Quatro stick

[ps1 <ps1@schirrms.net>]

Hi,

I recenly own a Pinnacle (or Pctv now) Quatro Stick (also known as  510e)
The product is a small USB stick, able to receive Analog TV, DVB-T TV, 
Analog Radio and also DVB-C TV (That is, cable TV).

The product is running under windows (even if I'm not so impressed by 
the analog TV reception, but this is another story).

Under Linux (I'm using a Mandriva 2009 spring distro, with a 2.6.29-6 
kernel), the system says nothing about the stick.

More exactly : the stick is recognized via lsusb, but nothing happend 
whem I plug the device (I don't know if the system should ask for a 
firmware file, but there is no new device in /dev after plugging the 
device).

I just compile the current version of v4l-dvb, as explained on the Wiki, 
(had some trouble to remove the kernel's drivers witch are gziped), but 
a grep in em28xx-card.c let me think that my device is not supported. 
The VID PID are 2304:0242

I think that the EMPIA chipset is an em2885 chip, and I didn't find any 
information about this chip, too.

Here are the other informations that I was able to gatter :
When I plug the device, I got theses messages in /usr/adm/messages :

to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write!
Oct 16 23:27:31 p4c2400 pulseaudio[2723]: alsa-sink.c: Most likely this 
is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_hda_intel'. Please report this issue to 
the ALSA developers.

with POLLOUT set -- however a subsequent snd_pcm_avail() returned 0 or 
another value < min_avail.
--------------------------------

i can manually load em28xx, but there's no device creation at this moment.

Any ideas ? Any more tests I can do ?

Thanks,
Pascal
