That should be sufficient. (FYI You only need 64 MB per card of vmalloc address space - not real memory - to map in the register set of each card. Vmalloc space is used to give real memory to loadable modules and for video buffer allocations.) > After doing this I still can't get the box to add /dev/video1 or be able to > use the tuner card.

If there is anything else > that might be helpful., please just ask. Driver versions below 1.0.4 (IIRC) are known to have communication problems from CPU to the card. Please upgrade to the latest driver from the v4l-dvb repository. See the instructions here: http://www.ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Cx18#Obtaining_the_driver You may wish to back up your current kernel video modules first, before going through with the "make install".
