Did this, yet still no luck.  I have a feeling I've missed something
in building the drivers as I'm still getting these messages from
dmesg:

Linux video capture interface: v1.00
cx2388x blackbird driver version 0.0.4 loaded
cx88[0]: Your board isn't known (yet) to the driver.  You can
cx88[0]: try to pick one of the existing card configs via

I've tried various combinations of modprobe including "modprobe cx88xx
card=48" before probing cx8800 and cx88_blackbird.  Any more
suggestions?

Wes,

You are using what we call an, "ancient" kernel, with very old v4l-dvb modules.

You will need to upgrade your v4l-dvb modules using the mercurial
repository on linuxtv.org ... see the following howto:

http://linuxtv.org/repo

...although you might also run into further trouble...  Based on your
dmesg output above, it is evident that you are using a non-vanilla
kernel -- Notice cx88 card #22... It SHOULD read, "pcHDTV 3000" , but
your driver reports <NULL>  ... That looks quite shady to me.  It also
looks like you are running a kernel older than 2.6.12, and I'm not
sure that the mercurial tree will build properly in your environment.

I would first try to follow the howto above.  If it doesn't work, then
you might actually have to recompile your kernel using vanilla sources
from www.kernel.org.

Getting a new kernel will not be enough, however, since the support
for your card was added only very recently.  Support for your card is
slated for official inclusion into the 2.6.18 kernel.  So, after you
install your new kernel (2.6.12 or later) then you will need to build
and install the v4l-dvb modules from the mercurial repository.

Good Luck,

Mike
