I see *two* lines that I wouldn't expect there - and we have subsystem
information in the third line...

That said, a quick grep of the relevant source shows three drivers which are
for SAA7146 cards with subsystem ID 0000:0000 - mxb (which you've just seen),
hexium_orion, and dpc7146.

I expect that none of those will work, though.

Unless somebody else has a better idea, I'm inclined to say "broken card" :-|

How sharper than a hound's tooth it is to have a thankless serpent.
