With kind help from Magnus Hörlin I was able to get past the problem with different subsystem id's. He suggested testing the card in another PCI-slot and/or taking other cards away. I removed a 3Com NIC and put the Cinergy in another slot and voilá: frontend got recognized during bootup:
found a VP-2040 PCI DVB-C device on (00:07.0),

To make this even stranger, I placed the 3Com NIC and Cinergy back to their original slots and rebooted the machine. I was waiting for the problem to reappear, but NO; frontend was recognized and subsystem id's were similar no matter which options I used with lspci.
Now scanning doesn't seem to work, but that's another story.

Hi again,
I included wrong kind of lspci output; subsystem id didn't show up. But here come the right ones:
lspci -d 1822:4e35 -vn gives the following:
administrator@hydra:~$ administrator@hydra:~$ lspci -d 1822:4e35 -vn
00:08.0 0480: 1822:4e35 (rev 01)
Subsystem: 153b:1178
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 20but without -d option, which is lspci -vn:
Memory at fc020000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
administrator@hydra:~$ lspci -vn
.
.
.
00:08.0 0480: 1822:4e35 (rev 01) (prog-if 02)
Subsystem: 173b:1178

.
.
.
You see, the subsystem ids differ: 153b:1178 and 173b:1178. I don't know what that means, but hopefully someone else does.
lspci -vnn says:
00:08.0 Multimedia controller [0480]: Twinhan Technology Co. Ltd Mantis DTV PCI Bridge Controller [Ver 1.0] [1822:4e35] (rev 01) (prog-if 02)
Subsystem: Altima (nee Broadcom) Unknown device [173b:1178]
Is it possible to get this card working in linux (in the near future)?

Hello everybody,
I've been trying to get my recently (yesterday) bought dvb-c tuner working under Ubuntu Hardy. Installed drivers from http://www.jusst.de/hg/mantis, and the /dev/dvb got populated, but without frontend.
Output from lspci:
administrator@hydra:~$ lspci -d 1822:4e35 -vv
00:08.0 Multimedia controller: Twinhan Technology Co. Ltd Mantis DTV PCI Bridge Controller [Ver 1.0] (rev 01)

Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort+ <MAbort- >SERR+ <PERR+
Latency: 32 (2000ns min, 63750ns max)
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 20
Region 0: Memory at fc020000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
PCI id seems to have changed from the earlier Cinergy C cards.
Output (partial) from dmesg:
[ 33.894498] found a VP-2040 PCI DVB-C device on (00:08.0),

Even I managed to notice one line stating: "!!! NO Frontends found !!!", so I guess it's no wonder it isn't working.
Does anyone have a clue what I should try next? Or has anyone had success with this card. I couldn't find earlier models, like cinergy 1200-c, or even newer, anywhere. I'm supposed to build a DVB to IP streaming machine for a school, so I would also be happy if someone knew any other available DVB-C cards working under linux.
Best regards,
Mikko Mäkinen
