Hello,

the first card is Broadcom BCM4401 and the second one is a Sitecom
LN-020, the chip inside is a linksys.

I can't give you right now the lspci-n and lspci-v, as I am only able to
access internet from work! I will do that tonight and send them
tomorrow.

I'm using a kernel 2.6.6 compiled by me from kernel.org with 4k stacks
to off to use ivtv.
I tried to compile the manufacturers driver for both card! but it always
say illgeal char something as those driver have been created for kernel
2.4

I'm thinking of trying to compile kernel 2.7.7rc3, perhaps the bugs are
sorted out there...

Regards
Ludovic
