<br><br>dmesg | grep cx88 <br><br>or by using <br><br>lsmod | grep cx88<br><br>to see if the modules are loaded. The only difficult but that I havent bothered doing because it seems like too much hassle is to get the IR working on the 90002 cards.. not all the buttons work etc.
<br><br>Luckily I also have a PVR 250 which does the job nicely although I would like to retire this card at somepoint.. anyone have a good 90002 IR guide ?<br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Regards,<br><br><br>~CM
