Dear all,

being a Newbie in Linux, I desparately try to get my PCIE card working to enable DVB-T reception on my Notebook.

I'm running UBUNTU 12.04LTS

The Video card is:
Creatix Poymedia
CTX967 v7.2.2
PCIe Device based on Philips SAA7160 (rev. 03) component

As I was so far not successful in finding any suited driver for the device, it would be highly appreciated if someone might find the time to provide support on this.
Effectively the "Media controller" is listed up if running "lspci". The output is:
06:00.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7160 (rev 03)
However neither any appropriate Linux FW is available nor any support by the manufacturer.
After having searched intesively on the web, it seems there are quite plenty of folks out there with the same issue.

Best regards

Markus Hermsen
