Geniatech x8000 thriller

Thanks a lot, some success. Here is the lspci -vn. I added the dmesg. As you see the modprobe alsa is not working(no sound).

Wrong card option; card 63 is for the DVB-T version of the card and, consequently,
explains why the wrong components are being loaded. Use
card=67 instead. There may be further info for you in:
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/KWorld_ATSC_120

Can you report your success on the matter and also supply the output of "lspci -vn" (to see what the PCI subsystem ID for the card is, and as to
whether it differs from the KWorld card). Thanks.
