Subsystem: Device 195d:1105 indicates that there is no EEPROM in card. If you send some links/pictures/photos then it would helped a lot. Is there a disk with drivers for Windows? Also I know about dm1105 based cards with tda10086 demod, those are not supported in the driver yet. BR Igor -- Igor M.
