strange hauppauge wintv device number

Hi Everybody,

I just bought an old hauppauge wintv card off of ebay and even though it is a model 401--which everybody claims to be supported by linux--it isn't working with tvtime or xawtv. I noticed that its subsystem id is not detected by the bttv driver in the 2.6 kernel. Here's the lspci dump:

01:01.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11)
Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. Unknown device 03eb <----- 03eb instead of the usual 13eb

Memory at cfdfe000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: [44] Vital Product Data
Capabilities: [4c] Power Management version 2

And here's the syslog output from loading the bttv driver:

As you can see, the subsystem id is 0070:03eb instead of the usual 0070:13eb as defined in the bttv-cards.c file. I must have a really old card or one that was recalled or something. Have anybody ever seen a 03eb?

I have tried a couple things to try to get it to work. The first thing I tried was passing the card and tuner parameters to the bttv driver for the usual Hauppauge WinTV config. That didn't work. The next thing I tried was editing the bttv-cards.c file in the driver so that it would detect a 03eb device as if it were a 13eb device. That didn't work either.

In both cases I keep getting a bunch of errors in my syslog:

Oct 16 10:11:38 mycroft kernel: [45633.943060] bttv0: SCERROCERR @ 05e3701c,bits: FMTCHG* VSYNC* HSYNC* OFLOW* HLOCK* VPRES* 6* 7* I2CDONE* GPINT* 10* RISCI* FBUS* FTRGT* FDSR* PPERR* RIPERR* PABORT* OCERR* SCERR*

Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this? I'd love to update the driver to support my card, but I'd have to get the documentation on the EPROM format.

Thanks ahead of time,
Dave

A user on the list had a similar problem in early May of this year. His device Vendor ID was coming across as 009e instead of 109e for Brooktree. He resolved his problem by pulling the card out, blowing the dust out of the slot, and reinstalling the card.

Andy
