I recently bought new KNC One TV Station card with Cineview CI module. When I installed it, it was detected and worked with no problems. I just noticed that tuner is not that sensitive and has a little problems with signal strentgh in some cases (rain, bad weather) where TT 2300S Premium didn't have. The problem got bigger when I tried Cineview module. I inserted Viaccess CAM module and RTV Slovenija smartcard. When I inserted CAM, card at the same moment lost lock of signal and signal was not good enough to lock again. When I get CAM out of the CI signal doesn't lock until I restart szap.
I think that this card is not supported directly because lspci reports Unknown KNC One card. Is someone working on drivers to support this card?
lspci output:

dmesg when CAM inserted:

I would realy like to know if card will be fully supported. I can help debuging problems and test solutions whithout a problem.
Thanks!
