lspci -v output:

Closest to pci connector is a conexant CX23416 (-12) chip
above this, a little bit to the right, is a CX25843 (-23) chip.

So it's the ivtv driver I need... right?

I began surfing the ivtv mail archives and from what I could
understand they pointed pvr150 owners to the cx88 driver since
it was a "blackbird" card. But since it's a new card I guess
there can be a bit of confusion...

Thank you very much for the input!
