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

I don't think you have the right modules loaded. my lsmod shows many
more.

Did you check which em28xx you're loading via modinfo. Mine shows the
new one is loaded it is in the empia directory
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ modinfo em28xx
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/empia/em28xx.ko
Make sure you aren;t loading the original v4l modules. That is what
your dmesg indicates to me. You should not have
/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/kernel/drivers/media/video/em28xx/em28xx.ko
but
/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/empia/em28xx.ko
I am not sure why you are using 2.6.24-7 as your kernel too,
Hope this helps.
There was some alsa issue that causes compilation issues under ubuntu
hardy.
