[Bug 33350] Re: Avermedia 777 DVB card is not supported in Dapper kernel

[Leann Ogasawara]

Wow, this is a pretty old bug.  I've looked at the dapper kernel git
tree and do not see this card being supported.  It's unlikely this will
be applied to Dapper as an SRU at this point.  I can however confirm as
Chris mentioned that this is supported in Edgy through the most recent
Intrepid kernel.  Thanks.

    V4L/DVB (4814): Remote support for Avermedia 777
    
    I didn't test it personally since I don't have this card, but A16AR uses the
    same interface and that one certainly does work perfectly (see the next patch).
    This patch was originally sent in
        http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-video&m=114743413825375&w=2
        https://www.redhat.com/mailman/private/video4linux-list/2006-May/msg00103.html
    but never got applied. This version has some trivial modifications and drops
    the weird gpio hack (it's not clear what practical purpose does it serve).
