[UNKNOWN IVTV CARD] Sony Vaio [4444:0016]

[Nomeji]

I've found an old PCI TV Card gathered from a Sony Vaio desktop PC. It looks really similar to a Haupauge PVR-150 or PVR-250 except it's recognized as a Sony device in lspci.
ivtv default it to PVR-150 but it's probably more similar to a PVR-250. Is there a way to default it to PVR-250 instead of PVR-150?

Here is dmesg log:

I2C mapping looks different:

As you can see in the log, card as a "cx23416" (same as PVR-250) but ivtv still load "cx25840". Could I get it to load "cx23416"?

If you run 'modinfo ivtv' you'll see a cardtype module option.

So you can load ivtv with 'modprobe ivtv cardtype=1' to have it select a PVR-250.

Note that there is support for a 'Sony VAIO Giga Pocket (ENX Kikyou)' (cardtype 28),
which might match as well with your hardware.
