Unknown CX23885 device

Hey Linux-DVB people

I'm trying to make an as-of-yet unsupported CX23885 device work in Linux.

I've tested that the device is not supported using the newest snapshot
of the DVB drivers. They did support a bunch of extra devices compared
to the standard ubuntu driver, but to no avail.

This is what I know about the device:

### physical description ###

The device is a small mini-PCIe device currently installed in my
Thinkpad T61p notebook. It did not originate there, but I managed to fit 
it in.


It has an Avermedia logo on top, but no other discernable markings.
I've tried removing the chip cover, but I can't see any other major chips
than the cx23885. I can take a second look, if I know what to look for.

What can I try for a next step?

How are you attaching the video/audio/antenna/etc. input to the pcie
card?  I don't imagine the card is much use without external
connectors.

Try this and if necessary module option card=29.

Any good?

Without card=29, nothing was found. This is with card=29, but still
no /dev/dvb nodes.

What's the preferred method of pulling the source, btw?

I just downloaded a .tar.gz. It works, but updating is not pleasant :)
