Yes, this is true, ignore all 250 cards, the don't count in the count, it's
only pvr150/350/500 cards which should be thought of when doing this setting,
so if a pvr150, pvr250, pvr350 you would have 1, -1 and not 1, -1, -1 since
there's  only two cards which have the i2c address we are skipping there.

It's confusing, and not optimal, but for some reason this has been done and 
now the i2c addresses conflict and it's probably some tricky code to be able
to autodetect before even attaching a card to the i2c bus, and it's even more
complicated than that, have to understand  i2c devices and detection in drivers,
then if so, please submit a patch and help us all ;-).



Thanks,
Chris
