Hi Hans, I will try the 'bleeding edge' driver tomorrow and let you know the results.
I posted the dmesg initially, but save you some research :) Below is the output on the new Alix 1C board; ivtv: Start initialization, version 1.0.0 ivtv0: Initializing card #0 ivtv0: Autodetected Hauppauge card (cx23416 based) ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] BIOS reported IRQ 0, using IRQ 10 ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] enabled at IRQ 10 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:0c.0[A] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 10 (level, low) -> IRQ 10 ivtv0: Loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes) ivtv0: Encoder revision: 0x02060039 tveeprom 0-0050: Hauppauge model 26559, rev F189, serial# 9929952 tveeprom 0-0050: tuner model is TCL MFPE05 2 (idx 89, type 38) tveeprom 0-0050: TV standards PAL(B/G) PAL(I) SECAM(L/L') PAL(D/D1/K)(eeprom 0x74) tveeprom 0-0050: audio processor is CX25843 (idx 37) tveeprom 0-0050: decoder processor is CX25843 (idx 30) tveeprom 0-0050: has radio, has no IR receiver, has no IR transmitter ivtv0: Autodetected Hauppauge WinTV PVR-150 cx25840 0-0044: cx25843-24 found @ 0x88 (ivtv i2c driver #0) cx25840 0-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes) ivtv0: i2c hardware 0x00000020 (wm8775) not found for command 0x4008646d ivtv0: Registered device video0 for encoder MPEG (4 MB) ivtv0: Registered device video32 for encoder YUV (2 MB) ivtv0: Registered device vbi0 for encoder VBI (1 MB) ivtv0: Registered device video24 for encoder PCM audio (1 MB) ivtv0: Registered device radio0 for encoder radio ivtv0: Initialized card #0: Hauppauge WinTV PVR-150 ivtv: End initialization Below the part I miss on the Alix 1C but see on another pc; tuner 0-0043: chip found @ 0x86 (ivtv i2c driver #0) tda9887 0-0043: tda988[5/6/7] found @ 0x43 (tuner) tuner 0-0061: chip found @ 0xc2 (ivtv i2c driver #0) tuner 0-0061: type set to 38 (Philips PAL/SECAM multi (FM1216ME MK3)) Hope this helps...
