it's kudzu who does the hardware detection business.. changing component
The ves1820 drivers really should have PCI module table entries included in it.
This is the response on the linux-dvb mailing list, I don't know if it is of any help: > That's bogus. Ves1820 and other frontend drivers are connected to > the I2C bus, not the PCI bus Also it seems that the driver must be added to /etc/modules.conf for this to work.
Ah, OK. You posted a PCI id, so I assumed that's where the card was. If it's not automatically detectable, it's not really automatically configurable.
