I have a TT S1400 which does not match the entry in the modules.pcimap.
Instead of:

0x00000000 0x00000000 0x0
it reports the following:
Vendor 0x00001131 - Device 0x00007146 - Subvendor: 0x00000133 -
Subdevice: 0x00001000
After patching budget.c this device works fine now !
Please generate a patch and submit it to the list, so that we can add it
to the official repository, along with your developer's certificate of
origin, in the form:
Are you sure that 0x0133:0x1000 is a _valid_ subvendor id?
Imho we must not add ids of broken cards to the repository.
Oliver,
I apologize. Perhaps I acted too fast on this patch. This thread was
sitting on the list since yesterday, and it seemed trivial enough to
me. I understand that people are busy, and don't always have the time
to review every patch on the list. This one looked fine to me, so I
thought I was saving everybody some time by pushing it through. I hate
to see patches like these get lost, and it does happen quite often.
Back to the point: I don't think this patch causes any harm. I did,
however, look up 0x0133 in the pci-id database (
http://pciids.sourceforge.net ) and found nothing. Does that mean that
this card is "broken" ?
Perhaps the eeprom contents got corrupted somehow, resulting in faulty
data? If that is the case, then yes, I would have to agree that the
patch doesn't belong in our repository. But what if there are more
cards with this subsystem id? If so, then I wouldn't call it "broken"
at all.
The changeset has already been merged into v4l-dvb master (changeset
ba9ee31a73f6), but I can have it reverted if that is your preference.
What do you think?
Regards,
Michael Krufky
