So I downloaded the v4l tree from HG, compiled and installed it, but 
this time was the firmware that was missing. I followed the instruction 
to get the firmware for the xc3028  from here



 http://www.steventoth.net/linux/xc5000/HVR-12x0-14x0-17x0_1_25_25271_WHQL.zip


and everything seemed to be perfect... but the tuner wasn't able to 
detect anything.


Some news from my LV3H

1) after rebuilding the v4l from the main tree the analog tuner seems to 
be working, What I mean is thata tvtime is able to scan channels and to 
find them.


2) unfortunately there's no audio, in any way. If I connect the audio 
out to the audio of my sblive! I only get noise. If I try to send the 
output of the connexant audio device to the sblive! I always get only noise.


3) no news for the zl10353 driver, which keeps on giving the same error


[ 4982.520836] zl10353: write to reg 6c failed (err = -6)!



I don't know if anyone is interested in this report and I don't even 
know if I'm writing to the right mailing list.


Please let me know what I shoul post to get help,  if it is possible to 
get help :-)

Hello,
I bought the TV card in the object, it is a PCI hybrid TV-card, both 
analogue and DVB-T.


I bought it, because on the manufacturer site they said they develop a 
linux driver, unfortunately when I downloaded the driver (which claims 
to be for fedora) I found the whole V4L tree to be compiled.


By the way, I tried to compiled it but it failed 'because it looked for 
the 2.6.19 kernel sources while I'm on Ubuntu Intrepid with a 2.6.27.


While I was trying to make the card work, I found a peculiar note in the 
NotOnlyTV faq that says that the driver they provide only works on 
Fedora 6.0.


Since Fedora 6.0 is an old distro (Fedora is now at the 10th revision) 
and since on ubuntu intrepid, the distro I'm using, the 2.6.19 kernel 
isn't available, I wondered if and how I could manage to apply the 
modifications they did to the main tree to make the driver work on more 
recent kernels and if those modifications could be imported in the main 
tree.


I attach the link to the V4l tree NOT provide is someone more expert 
than me wants have a look.


http://www.notonlytv.net/download/driver/lv3hlv3afedora.rar

And this is their faq (not very usefull indeed)

http://www.notonlytv.net/download/faq/faq_lv3h.pdf

Last thing, how can I know if someone is working on that card or on the 
chipset that card uses?

I tried w_scan, since there was not a freq table for my town, but it 
didn't find anything and dmesg reported the following error repeated:

I also tried scantv for analogue broadcast, but there wat a sign of the 
analogue tuner work, too. And the output of dmesg this time was the 
following
