to setup a card number that would match the correct settings for an
specific board.

Other PCI Hardware supported by media subsystem
===============================================

Generally, media hardware manufacturers frequently change the ancillary
drivers, like tuners and demodulator units used, usually without
changing the product name, revision number or specs.
