If again a card with same PCI subsystem ID appears, like now, it should
fall through the eeprom detection Hartmut has added and print a warning
about "unknow tuner stuff". You can override it then with the
card=number insmod option.

So we also don't know which kind of tuner it uses.
The ZL10313, think this one you mentioned previously, is sold to Intel
and is marked now as CE6313.
http://www.intel.com/design/celect/demodulators/ce6313.htm

There are reference designs with Intel CE tuners, also mentioned in the
"datasheet", which has at least the pin-out and some hints, but by far
not all. It shows some such design too. Maybe there are more complete
datasheets from ZarLink still around, but that doesn't answer the tuner
question yet.

Unfortunately this happens day by day.

Latest always in mercurial saa7134.h and Documentation/saa7134.CARDLIST,
but won't help. Best approach so far was by Murray Graham I guess.
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2007-July/019030.html

At least a read of the qt1010 register 0x29 returned 0x39, if this is
safe for the tuner ID. Think 0xd5 for the tuner ID in the eeprom is not
yet sure, might be vendor specific. On the T100 is one, dmesg, eeprom
dump and i2c_scan not yet available.

Tuner is at 0x62 (7bit notation) and mt352 at 0xf (0x1e >> 1).
Something claims to be an analog demod at 0x86 (8bit), but hard to
believe.

I don't cut anything yet, the next one who tries might even get more
confused. Can we get dmesg for it with i2c_scan=1 ("modinfo saa7134")
and no card=N forced anywhere?

And please, start a new thread ... ;)

Cheers,
Hermann
