Get a copy of the the latest v4l-dvb repository and apply the patch in
the e-mail below.  Here are some short directions:

(before installing all the modules, you may wish to back up your current
modules that are under /lib/modules/`uname -r` ).

You will also need firmware for the XC3028 tuner - as that's what the
current card entry assumes is the tuner.

Let me know if the card entry works for Compostie and S-Video.  If it
doesn't, you'll need to check the Windows *.inf file for your card to
get the DDR memory settings and input multiplexer settings correct for
the cx18-cards.c entry correct for your card.

By the way, what Toshiba laptop model did this card come from?

Andy
