Divico cards may require an extra firmware to work, type dmesg and it will give
you some lines that it needs the firmware. I'd also recommend compiling the
drivers for your card as it seems to take a while between the video 4 linux
developers to merge with upstream.

Subject: Mythbuntu 8.01 DVB Hardware Issue

Hi All, I'm having a minor hardware issue that I hope
someone can help
me with.
Yesterday I decided to make my wife's Windows XP based
desktop dual boot
Mythbuntu 8.01 so that I'd have access to the media on
my file server
via a media centre interface in the bedroom. I've got
Mythbuntu 8.01
running fine in the living room, but with a different dvb
card.
Mythbuntu installed fine except two things. The first is
that I'm as
yet unable to configure widescreen support for the ATI
card, but I can
get this fixed on my own. What's got me stumped is the
DVB card.
The card is a DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Lite, a bit old but is
supposed to
work with stock kernels since 2.6.9. Mythbuntu, however,
doesn't seem
able to see the card.
The relevant section of lsmod reads:
Module | Size | Used by
dvb_bt8xx | 17796 | 1
dvb_core | 81404 | 1 dvb_bt8xx
and
bttv | 175860 | dvb_bt8xx bt878
So the modules seem to be there.
If I cd into /dev/dvb/ a single adapter is listed as
adapter0
However, upon dmesg | grep dvb I get:
[ 41.072890] bttv0: add subdevice dvb0
Any suggestions and/or help would be much appreciated.
