AzureWave Mantis DVB-C DigitalTV

Asked by pgradone

Hi,

Does Ubuntu directly support this PCI DVB-C TV card, recognized by W*dows as:
"AzureWave Mantis BDA HID Device" ?
If not, is there an easy tweak to adapt it for good?

This is my last valid reason not to switch completely to Ubuntu

Thanks in advance

What Windows sees the device as is moot. You need to find out the CHIP which is on the device, the make and model is near worthless.

If you boot to an Ubuntu liveCD you can run:

lspci

and find out what it ACTUALLY is, then find guides based on that. Most times TV cards work with a little effort.

Can you help with this problem?
