Fabien-

Like I said, I am willing to help.  Even a non-working dmesg log full of 
errors can help me to figure out what you might need.  Try doing what I 
mentioned above, although I realized it would help if you also added the 
parameter i2c_scan=1 to your modprobe args.   I also realized that I've 
given bad instructions for the modules.  Do this:

First, remove the modules:

modprobe -r cx88-dvb
modprobe -r cx88-blackbird
modprobe -r cx8802
modprobe -r cx8800
modprobe -r cx88xx

Then insert them like this:

modprobe cx88xx card=18 i2c_scan=1
modprobe cx88-dvb

I'd be interested to see what dmesg looks like after the above.
