Still battling to get mythtv to recognise my card.

Am I correct in believing that the following output means that the card
is recognised by Ubuntu and that the driver is loaded? There isn't any
point in continuing the struggle if the card is not operative.

lspci gives me: 00:0a.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors
SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev d1)

dmesg | grep saa7133 gives me:
