Hi Brian,
What you can do is after loading the driver do a 'cat /dev/video0
>/dev/null', break it off and check dmesg again. This action will force
the firmware to load and if that is successful then at least the memory
is setup correctly.
Note that I have updated the cx18 driver to autodetect the Yuan MPC718,
so that should make life a bit easier.
If the firmware refuses to load, then try replacing the .ddr settings in
the mpc718 setup in cx18-cards.c with the values for the Samsung memory
chip (from cx18_card_hvr1600_samsung) or with the values for the
EtronTech memory chip (from cx18_card_h900). If we are lucky then one
of these will work. If none of these work, then the box really must be
opened.
Regards,
Hans
