Jon,

It appears that this card uses the CX23885 PCIe controller.

From initial research on the Leadtek site it appears that this card utilises the following main chips:
Conexant CX23885 - PCIe Interface
Conexant CX23417 - Analog Video to MPEG2 Encoder
Intel CE6353 - Digital TV Demodulator (Formerly known as Zarlink 10353)
Xceive ????? - Digital TV Tuner,

All of the above that I have identified have drivers in linux in various stages of development.

Can you take a high res photo of the card showing all chip IDs?
Can you identify which tuner from Xceive it is?
Do you have a partition set up with windows and the card working?
   If so can you use regspy (Google "Dscaler Regspy" to find the correct program), and record what the values are for:
      - Card sitting idle straight after bootup
      - Watching Digital TV
      - Watching Analog TV
      - Sitting idle after watching TV

What is the output of `lspci -vnn` when in linux regarding this card?

What does `dmesg | grep cx23885` give you?

It might also be useful for others who have this card if you make an entry the linuxtv wiki for this card, with all of the information that I have requested linked to or included.

I may be able to knock up a driver that you can use for the digital TV side as this seems similar to other existing cards, I'm not familiar with the Analog side though.
(No gurantees, but it should be relatively simple to achieve).

Regards,

Stephen.

         Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help me get this card up and
working in
kubuntu 8.04. I've tried setting it up much like a Leadtek
DTV2000H,
version J, as per instructions here:
http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Leadtek_DTV2000H
(I've been using that card for a while in another box)

System:
Gibagyte moher board (all in one) GA-MA78GM-S2H
AMD Athlon X2 6000 (2 core, 3GHz)
4G ram, heaps of hard disk
64bit KDE 4 kubuntu, kernel: 2.6.24-20 generic

http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T_PCIe_Cards
suggested I email this address.


cheers

Jon
