Installed Mythbuntu 9.10, with Hauppauge HDV-1600 card. It worked (!) except video was jerky. Following instructions at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HVR-1600 I downloaded driver as per http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_Obtain,_Build_and_Install_V4L-DVB_Device_Drivers and firmware from http://linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/

Driver would not compile (first problem), but the real issue is I installed the firmware, and now the card is not recognized at all. Do I *need* the new driver installed for the card to even be recognized at boot?

Before firmware install, boot messages were as follows:

[   10.769697] cx18-0 843: verified load of v4l-cx23418-dig.fw firmware (16382 bytes)

after that boot messages say nothing about video capture. lspci does see the card, though:

02:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23418 Single-Chip MPEG-2 Encoder with Integrated Analog Video/Broadcast Audio Decoder

Advice?
