Andy,
      I tried the patches for the ACER 500 that you posted. 

Purely FYI There was just one small problem with the compile in that my
version of cx18-drivers.h was missing the LEADTEK_DVR1300H entry
which I added as below:


#define CX18_CARD_LEADTEK_PVR2100     6 /* Leadtek WinFast
PVR2100/DVR3100 H */
#define CX18_CARD_LEADTEK_DVR3100H    7 /* Leadtek WinFast
PVR2100/DVR3100 H */
#define CX18_CARD_LAST                7


 I probably have an old version. Thereafter it compiled and installed,
but I no longer get any /dev/video* (which I did get previously)
nor /dev/dvb/* (which I did NOT get previously). I've posted
the relevant section from dmesg below. This was following 

 adding patch .c files to directory
 sudo make 
 sudo make install
 "reboot"

 I've not seen the "bad EEPROM" message before.

Please also find below lspci output, in case it helps.

Please note that I currently only have one card installed, the second
one is still on the bench in case you need any more hardware data, I
don't want to risk damaging it with too much unnecessary soldering
and removals.
