A distant possibility might be that your card is a very specific rare revision of that thing and thus doesn't have a proper card type entry for it due to almost nobody else having that card. In the TV card area (just as in the WLAN card area) there are quite some cards sold under the *very same* name but wildly (or not so wildly but sufficiently) differing hardware (those manufacturer b****rds burn in hell please, thanks). > I'm assuming that if cx88_alsa found any audio devices on the card then it > would create a card1 listed in /proc/asound/cards ?
