Sorry, not much time today.
Please get the repository from today (bug fixed) and try card=109. AFIK, your
card is very similar.
Regarding the missing mux: The channel decoder is qiute picky with the parameters
please check whether FEC and GI are right (some other drivers just ignore these).
If this works better, can you please report?
Good luck
Hartmut
