Hi everyone, So It's my first time to LinuxTV hacking, debugging etc, so I apologize if I've failed to provide anything essential. Anyways, I've just bought a ASUS 'My Cinema Europa Hybrid' (P7131 DVB-T) which has the Phillips saa7131 chipset in it (supported by the saa7131 module et al). There is a problem getting the firmware in this card to boot correctly - I may have the wrong card number and I cannot use i2c because it detects it as UNKNOWN/GENERIC (i.e type 0) which doesn't work. According to /usr/share/doc/linux/video4linux etc my card number should be either 78, 111 or 112. Specifying card=x seems to make the module somewhat recognize the card, and even though I have the firmware - it won't actually boot. This is shown by the fact that all dvb operations essentially just time out and the fact that I cannot scan channels in software like tvtime. I might be wrong though. Here is relevant output which might assist in helping the problem: ==== dmesg log ====c saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.14 loaded saa7134[0]: found at 0000:00:09.0, rev: 1, irq: 18, latency: 32, mmio: 0xeb007000 saa7134[0]: subsystem: 1043:4847, board: ASUSTeK P7131 Dual [card=78,insmod option] saa7134[0]: board init: gpio is 200000 input: saa7134 IR (ASUSTeK P7131 Dual) as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:09.0/input/input7 tuner' 3-0043: chip found @ 0x86 (saa7134[0]) tda9887 3-0043: creating new instance tda9887 3-0043: tda988[5/6/7] found saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 00: 43 10 47 48 54 20 1c 00 43 43 a9 1c 55 d2 b2 92 saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 10: 00 ff 82 0e ff 20 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 20: 01 40 01 02 03 ff 03 04 08 ff 00 2a ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 30: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 40: ff 02 00 c2 86 10 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 50: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 60: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 70: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 80: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom 90: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom a0: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom b0: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom c0: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom d0: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom e0: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: i2c eeprom f0: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff saa7134[0]: registered device video0 [v4l2] saa7134[0]: registered device vbi0 saa7134[0]: registered device radio0 DVB: registering new adapter (saa7134[0]) DVB: registering frontend 0 (Philips TDA10046H DVB-T)... tda1004x: setting up plls for 48MHz sampling clock tda1004x: timeout waiting for DSP ready tda1004x: found firmware revision 0 -- invalid tda1004x: trying to boot from eeprom tda1004x: found firmware revision 26 -- ok saa7134[0]/dvb: could not access tda8290 I2C gate tda827x_probe_version: could not read from tuner at addr: 0xc2 ===== Relevant bits of lspci ===== 00:09.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7134/SAA7135HL Video Broadcast Decoder (rev 01) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

If so it would be nice to know where I could buy (online) TV Tuner cards with a composite input, are the old PCI type and of course work well with Linux (Fedora 10 at least).
