Hi, Apologies for the length of the post,..
I´m going down the MythTV path and purchased an ASUS M2NPV-VM board. I already had a DVICO Dual Digital card, (PCI with 2nd tuner being USB2). My initial testing was using a different motherboard and was quite successful but am getting nowhere with this new board. It looks as though the USB2 drivers don´t want to have a bar of the USB devie of this card. I´ve just gone through a fresh install of Ubuntu 7.04 alternate and followed it with an update & an upgrade to be on 2.6.20-16-generic. I´ve also copied the dvb-usb-bluebird-01.fw into the /lib/firmware/2.6.20-16-generic folder. After loading the cx88_dvb module, ONLY the PCI tuner gets recognised. After a bit of googling, I found that others have had problems with this board also - some were resolved by BIOS upgrades, so my board is now up to date also, but still no worky. I´ve tried several distros with identical behavior, Fedora 5, Mandriva Spring 2007 & Ubuntu 7.04 - I´ve settled on using Ubuntu for now. Here´s some details,... After loading the cv88-dvb module I have the following reported: [==========] Jun 1 00:15:05 couch kernel: [ 649.836000] cx2388x dvb driver version 0.0.6 loaded Jun 1 00:15:05 couch kernel: [ 649.836000] cx8802_register_driver() ->registering driver type=dvb access=shared Jun 1 00:15:05 couch kernel: [ 649.836000] CORE cx88[0]: subsystem: 18ac:db50, board: DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual Digital [card=44] Jun 1 00:15:05 couch kernel: [ 649.836000] cx88[0]/2: cx2388x based dvb card Jun 1 00:15:05 couch kernel: [ 649.836000] DVB: registering new adapter (cx88[0]).

[==========] This registers the PCI tuner, I can also see the adaptor under /dev/dvb/adapter0 as expected. lspci shows the following: [==========] 04:09.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder (rev 05) 04:09.2 Multimedia controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder [MPEG Port] (rev 05) [==========] At this time, with USB2 support and module ehci_hcd loaded, lsusb shows: [==========] Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 007: ID 046d:c505 Logitech, Inc. Cordless Mouse+Keyboard Receiver Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 [==========] Now, if I disconnect my external USB cable between the DVICO and board and then re-connect it, (with USB2 module in play), I get the following logged: [==========] Jun 1 00:26:24 couch kernel: [ 1328.428000] usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 11 Jun 1 00:26:24 couch kernel: [ 1328.972000] usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 12 Jun 1 00:26:25 couch kernel: [ 1329.516000] usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 13 Jun 1 00:26:25 couch kernel: [ 1330.036000] usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 14 [==========] Those numbers, i.e. 11 thru to 14 just go higher with every time I disconnect/reconnect. With the re-connect I´d have expected one of the cx88 modules to have kicked in the firmware load, which it hasn´t done :-( Now if I disconnect the external USB cable between my DVICO card and USB port, remove the ehci_hcd module and then re-connect it, I get the following: [==========] Jun 1 00:36:15 couch kernel: [ 1919.692000] usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 9 Jun 1 00:36:15 couch kernel: [ 1919.900000] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Jun 1 00:36:15 couch kernel: [ 1920.036000] dvb-usb: found a 'DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual USB' in warm state.

I´ve also mercurial and grabbed the latest v4l modules and installed them. I got the same behavior prior to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don´t believe I have any faulty hardware just appropriate support for it.
