ASUS PVR-416
I have an Asus PVR-416 board in a Scientific Linux 6.2 box. I have
ivtv-firmware installed, and the card is autodetected and all. But when I
load it I get an error like such:

cx88[0]/2: cx2388x 8802 Driver Manager

From what I can tell the cx88 should support this board, but I can't find
firmware anywhere that isn't flagged as a mismatch. I've cut it out
of the windows drivers, I've downloaded several versions from ivtv's FTP.
Anyone have any suggestions? The file is very much there,
and seems right, but it swears there's a checksum mismatch. Thanks for any
help in advance.

Oh, I want to use it on Myth, but have not gotten anywhere near that point.
I could probably use it as a frame grabber now, but that's silly.
