Re: Setting the tuner type of cx88xx Module in Kernel 2.6.26.2 does not work anymore

[Marcel Tiede <badcel@gmx.de>]

Hi again,

I switched the pci - slot of the tv - card just to check if there is any
other behaviour (regarding eeprom detection). It just did not help :-(

>From the archlinux forum someone asked me wether my card is listed in
the pci-id repository. I don't know if this is relevant to the modul...

lspci -nn reports:

01:09.0 Multimedia video controller [0400]: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI
Video and Audio Decoder [14f1:8800] (rev 05)
01:09.1 Multimedia controller [0480]: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video
and Audio Decoder [Audio Port] [14f1:8811] (rev 05)

If I take a look into http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/iii/?i=0070 I can not find
my id 8811 / 8800. (If I get s.th. wrong here, I'm sorry and an absolute
beginner in this topic ;-))

My card is a Hauppauge PCI-FM it is model nr. 34519 revision J160.

Anyway, from my point of view, the modul should (again) provide a way to
set the tuner manually.

Greetings

Marcel
