In one PC I get various 'unknown PCI type 10' (I'm paraphrasing here)<br>when booting and then can only see the 'unknown device 6800' in lspci.<br>In another machine with Ubuntu I get no errors on boot but the same in
<br>lspci.</blockquote><div><br>If lspci isn't recognizing things then it isn't a MythTV problem but a Linux kernel problem.<br>I'd be curious to know where the device is showing up in /proc/bus/pci (if at all).
<br><br>Also, the /var/log/dmesg or /var/log/kern.log differences without and with the card might be nice (not the entire logs -- just the differences).<br><br>Just off the top of my head I wonder if some manufacturers (I known nothing about Nova-T -- URL?) are starting to push devices which implement some of the HDCP (DRI) content protection shemes and Linux is ignoring them? I've always thought that this whole approach was flawed in that if I can get access to the PCI bus or the HDMI cable I ought to be able to record the digital signals to copy them. As long as there is a way to feed an identical signal into the bus/cable one ought to be able to play back the content. Of course the manufacturers are going to make this as difficult as possible (if they want Hollywood's stamp of approval).
<br><br>I wonder how long it will be before a group puts together a network of PS3's programmed to crack HDCP codes... (or am I being naive about how simple this should be).<br><br>Robert<br><br></div></div>
