Can not find card

[poddydoger]

I've just installed a Hauppauge TV-quad HD card and have a number of questions. (One at a time or different theads?)

The first is the motherboard doesn't seem to be able to find the card.

I'm currently running the latest slacko puppy 64.

The code

ls /dev/v*

returns 15 folders.

None of them video, which is required for pAVerecord (comes with the install)

The code

lspci -vnn

amoungst other things returns

The above information repeats at

06:00.0


Which suggests that the motherboard is seeing the card, but car not communicate.

So I'd like to know what to do to get the card and the motherboard communicating.

Maybe your card needs firmware to get it working, check this site:

There aren't really that many Linux users here, have you tried the support forum for your distro? This is where I was pointed by the slacko puppy page:
