Hi Matthew,

Thanks for your reply. I've been away for a couple of weeks, so I didn't 
have time to reply.

This is what dmesg has to say:

CORE cx88[0]: subsystem: 107d:6611, board: Leadtek Winfast 2000XP Expert 
[card=5,autodetected]
TV tuner 44 at 0x1fe, Radio tuner -1 at 0x1fe
cx88[0]: Leadtek Winfast 2000XP Expert config: tuner=38, eeprom[0]=0x01
input: cx88 IR (Leadtek Winfast 2000XP as /class/input/input3
cx88[0]/0: found at 0000:00:0a.0, rev: 5, irq: 19, latency: 32, mmio: 
0xf5000000
cx88[0]/0: registered device video0 [v4l2]
cx88[0]/0: registered device vbi0
cx88[0]/0: registered device radio0

- to me it looks as if it is loaded OK, but I didn't notice the '2000XP' 
thing before. Do you think it means that it is one of the infamous 
Windows only sort of cards (like eg. the winmodems)? I didn't buy it 
myself, so I didn't get a say in what card was chosen.
