Hey here are some ideas:

run "dmesg |more " (hit space to page through the output) and see what
the logs are saying...does it find a firmware?

Look for lines that start with cx88 or xc5000.

Specifically see if you can find these lines:
xc5000: waiting for firmware upload (dvb-fe-xc5000-1.1.fw)...
xc5000: firmware read 12332 bytes.
xc5000: firmware upload

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_HD_Card_(800i)

If its working you should have a file here: /dev/dvb/adapter*/dvr*.
Where the stars are a 0 or 1 for each card/input.

See if that leads you in the right direction...if its not loading the
firmware I attached the correct one.

save it so where ever and run:
cp dvb-fe-xc5000-1.1.fw /lib/firmware/

Let me know if you get anywhere
