Lifeview NOT Hybrid PCI! LV3H

[Adam Pribyl <pribyl@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I got this new card from Lifeview. It is based on Conexant CX-23881, 
Xceive 3028 tuner and Intel CE6353 DVBT decoder.. When 
I used cx88xx driver it segfaults, upon suggestion by Mauro Carvalho 
Chehab in this bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9876 I 
compiled cx88 with xc3028 support from mercurial.

Now it is better, driver identifies card as
cx88[0]: subsystem: 14f1:8852, board: Geniatech X8000-MT DVBT 
[card=63,autodetected]

and complains about
xc2028 1-0061: xc2028/3028 firmware name not set!
It is not loading xc firmware which I extracted into /lib/firmware 
according http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Xceive_XC3028/XC2028

also it uses incorrect DVBT frontend
DVB: registering frontend 0 (Zarlink ZL10353 DVB-T)...

The questions:
1. How is that possible that subsystem id 14f1:8852 is matching this card 
but it is already known for different card - can we have two cards with 
same ID?
2. why xc is not loading firmware, looking into source it should load 
xc3028-v27.fw, where I can set the firmware name (any modprobe option?)
3. is intel DVBT supported?

Similar card different vendor?
