Looks like cesman over at Knoppmyth central < http://mysettopbox.tv > is looking for lspci -vv output results for Hauppauage's PVR-{1,2,3}50 and PVR-500 cards. I suspect he's working on Knoppmyth's auto-configure functionality to make sure it can detect all the variants well in his next revision.

Pull the card and see if the lspci changes. Put the card back in, make sure it is in all the way. Some folks have been surprised to find that they didn't have it pushed in all the way or that it was slightly angled in the slot. Easy mistake to make with cards that have connectors that stick out
