Yes I was able to get this device to work just fine under ubuntu 8.04
assuming you mean the 800e (800i is the pci card I believe). Here is my
howto. It is key to have a clean v4l then install em28xx-new then
reboot with the stick NOT inserted

I'd be happy to help further if this doesn't work for you.
Good luck,
James

Subject: [Em28xx] Pinnacle 800i HD PRO on MYTHBUNTU 8.04
Has anyone had any luck ... installing the EM28xx driver on Mythbuntu ?
I have been through 3 versions of UBUNTU and I have exactly 1 HD
recording to
show for it. It worked once on Ubuntu 7.1 until a reboot ! The one time
it worked the
picture from AN ATSC OTA station was great ! Enough to convince me to
keep
trying with this USB Tuner.
It worked under Windows XP so the hardware is fine !
Any HOWTOS for MYTHBUNTU 8.04
Thanks
Steve

Hmm, not to hijack, but I tried installing the debs and they don't work
for me. Essentially the drivers install and load but don't do anything.
It may be because I'm using kernel 2.6.24-7 instead of 2.6.24-16. For
some reason kernel.org doesn't have the sources for 2.6.24-16 available.
The output of dmesg is simply
[ 339.322672] em28xx v4l2 driver version 0.0.1 loaded
[ 339.322699] usbcore: registered new interface driver em28xx
Nothing beyond that about finding my devices or anything.
lsmod gives:
em28xx 48680 0
compat_ioctl32 2304 1 em28xx
ir_common 36356 1 em28xx
videodev 29056 1 em28xx
v4l2_common 18560 2 em28xx,videodev
v4l1_compat 15364 2 em28xx,videodev
tveeprom 16784 1 em28xx
i2c_core 25088 5
em28xx,tveeprom,i2c_ali1535,i2c_ali15x3,i2c_ali1563
usbcore 146412 5 em28xx,usbhid,ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd
And trying to modprobe em28xx-dvb returns fatal, module not found.
So instead, I compiled the em28xx-new driver from source. They compiled
fine with no errors, but then simply wouldn't load:
insmod: error inserting 'em28xx.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
Not sure what to try next. I'm going to try different kernels and see if
I can compile one these will work with.
Cheers,
Raphy
