There are 2 versions of this card, version 'I' & version 'J'. According various forums, version 'I' works out of the box, yet the later version 'J' needs some tinkering. Apparently version J was made to be compatible with Vista, so if you can avoid the box thats says Vista ready! <br />
<br />

Although this card does not work out of the box with a little tinkering you can quite easily get the Digital tuner to work in LinuxMCE. There is a patch available to get both the analogue and digital tuners but it looked a little too complex for my liking.<br />

This patch is broken with kernel 2.6.25<br />

<br />
Anyway, to get the digital tuner to work you will need to follow 3 simple steps:<br />
<br />
<br />
1. Configure linux to load the module cx88-dvb automatically on start-up using the command: sudo echo "cx88-dvb" >> /etc/modules<br />
This will add the line cx88-dvb to the file /etc/modules.<br />
<br />
<br />
2. Edit the /etc/modprobe.d/options file and add the line: <br />
options cx88xx card=51<br />
<br />
This will tell mythtv exactly what type of card you are using.<br />
<br />
<br />
3. In Mythtv-setup, under capture cards, select 'DVB DTV capture card (v3.x)' for the card type. Set 'DVB Card Number' to 0 ( for the first card, 1 for 2nd card etc)<br />
