Due to the apparent mailing-list problems over the weekend I send this
email again (at least I couldn't find my original email in the
mailing-list archives).

Some day ago I brought a Hauppauge NOVA-T card only to find out that
this seems to be a completely redesinged model. It uses a Conexant
chipset. lspci -v gives the following output for this card:

03:02.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Winfast TV2000 XP (rev 05)
~        Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 9002

During bootup kudzu came up and detected the card as "Conexant Winfast
TV2000 XP" and added "alias char-major-81 cx8800" to /etc/modprobe.conf.
When loading the cx8800 module I get this infos in /var/log/messages:

Jul 23 18:17:19 riker udev[6504]: creating device node '/udev/vbi1'

Is there any way to get this card going under Linux yet?

Best regards.
