Hi,
I recenly own a Pinnacle (or Pctv now) Quatro Stick (also known as 510e)
The product is a small USB stick, able to receive Analog TV, DVB-T TV,
Analog Radio and also DVB-C TV (That is, cable TV).
The product is running under windows (even if I'm not so impressed by
the analog TV reception, but this is another story).
Under Linux (I'm using a Mandriva 2009 spring distro, with a 2.6.29-6
kernel), the system says nothing about the stick.
More exactly : the stick is recognized via lsusb, but nothing happend
whem I plug the device (I don't know if the system should ask for a
firmware file, but there is no new device in /dev after plugging the
device).
I just compile the current version of v4l-dvb, as explained on the Wiki,
(had some trouble to remove the kernel's drivers witch are gziped), but
a grep in em28xx-card.c let me think that my device is not supported.
The VID PID are 2304:0242
I think that the EMPIA chipset is an em2885 chip, and I didn't find any
information about this chip, too.
Here are the other informations that I was able to gatter :
When I plug the device, I got theses messages in /usr/adm/messages :

Oct 16 23:27:31 p4c2400 pulseaudio[2723]: alsa-sink.c: ALSA woke us up
to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write!
Oct 16 23:27:31 p4c2400 pulseaudio[2723]: alsa-sink.c: Most likely this
is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_hda_intel'. Please report this issue to
the ALSA developers.
Oct 16 23:27:31 p4c2400 pulseaudio[2723]: alsa-sink.c: We were woken up
with POLLOUT set -- however a subsequent snd_pcm_avail() returned 0 or
another value < min_avail.
--------------------------------
i can manually load em28xx, but there's no device creation at this moment.
Any ideas ? Any more tests I can do ?
Thanks,
Pascal
