do a :

modinfo cx8800

from the command line. Forget about docs! I think we're writing it for 
them!

Oh.  That's interesting.  Is that documented anywhere?

All I can find in the directory containing the cx8800 family
is the results of a grep that lists only binary modules - not
source modules as having the string "video_nr".

I would add to "Confusing" maybe "Obfuscating".

At least in the ivtv documentation, you can find out how
to make the PVR-350 send its output to /dev/video17
instead of /dev/video16.

OK.  Thanks for even more help.  You have motiviated me
to try to re-install one HD-3000 card and start down the dark,
bumpy trail to building the drivers again.
