Welcome, you've come to the right place to learn. :)

I would say this, the very best you can hope to achieve right now with 
the card is to get DVB-T working. This should easily be acheivable. 
Drivers for the analog parts are under development.

No. This does not surprise me.

The tuner will not show up in an i2c scan if it's being held 
electrically in reset using a GPIO between the '885 and the tuner, or if 
it's located behind an I2C gate which is closed on the 353.

The best way to determine GPIO configuration is described below.

Yes, the 3028 expects to load firmware, but the 3028 driver is lot being 
attached - so you're not seeing errors - yet.

No, neither of these files are for the 3028. The first is for the 
bridge, but you don't need it yet. The second is for the encoder, and 
you don't need that yet either.

The 3028 firmware will be compiled directly into the leadtek driver. 
However, that firmware is available on the web for download in other 
places. I think the wiki at linuxtv.org describes this. If not, ask here.

This will be answered along with my GPIO reference below.

For the time being, you don't need to define .input, they are not used 
in the digital driver - although they will be used by analog.

This is a guess, right? It's a bad idea to guess with GPIO's unless you 
know what you're doing, you could be driving current into a part that 
doesn't like it. This can break hardware.

The first thing you need to do is download this project and install it 
on a windows box with your leadtek card:

http://deinterlace.sourceforge.net/

Then download this:

http://www.steventoth.net/anonfiles/RegSpy.exe

Start the regspy tool and then start the leadtek Tv application and 
switch to DVB-T mode, make sure video is playing then use the regspy 
tool to dump the register contents to file.

Then switch to analog mode, ensure the encoder is running and use regspy 
to dump the register values again, to another file.

Finally, stop the TV application, and dump the register values again.

Perhaps you could create a page on the WIKI and upload these files? 
Among other things, these files will us what GPIO values should be used, 
and whether it's using portb or c for DVB-T.

Please ensure all email traffic is posted to this list.

Regards,

Steve
