<p>What distro are you running? Check /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog which ever exists. Try to find out if the card is being recognized and driver loaded. I would look for strings like dvb or firmware in the log.<br>

I have an WinTV HVR 1250.<br>
<br>
It is a relatively new card; I bought it to replace an older one that got damaged in transit.<br>
<br>
My new computer (rebuilt almost entirely from scratch) can't see it in lspci.<br>

Can you try the card in another machine ?<br>
Have you another card you can try in that slot ?<br>
Does it show in any BIOS screens during boot ?<br>
Does anything change if you swap cards around slots within the same machine ?<br>
<br>
These ought to track down whether it's a card problem, or a machine problem, or some combination. I think (though could be wrong) that devices should show up with lspci even if there are no drivers loaded for them, but just in case it is a software/driver (though the 1250 is hardly what you could call bleeding edge) issue :<br>
<br>
If you boot from an up to date (for example) Knoppix disk, does it show up ?<span><font color="#888888"><br>
