[linux-dvb] AirStar HD5000-PCI card Unknown header type

[Kevin D Fowlks]

Hello, 

I recently bought a AirStar HD5000-PCI ATSC card, In the processing of 
setting it up in Fedora Core 4 i'm getting problems loading the kernel 
driver. It reports that it can't find the appropriate frontend. After 
looking at the PCI & vender ID from the LinuxTV wiki I noticed my card has a 
different PCI ID.
