I am trying to set up mythtv on an Acer Idea 510. According to the
hardware manager I have two CX23418. I have downloaded and installed the
drivers from here http://lwn.net/Articles/263066/

However the card does not initialise and I get the following in syslog:

I am a relative noob to Linux although fairly competent in Windows. 
Please reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as I do not think my own mailserver is fully 
working yet. 
I can send and fetchmail OK, but I don't think receipts direct are getting 
through - I think its a firewall issue on my BT voyager that I haven't cracked 
yet.

Many thanks

Brian
