Hi Mauro,
Syncronize it and put them on the same order as found at au0828 driver, as all the au0828 devices with analog TV need the same quirks.
The MXL and Woodbury boards don't support analog under Linux, so probably shouldn't be included in the list of quirks.
True.
That said, the MXL and Woodbury versions of the PCBs were prototypes that never made it into production (and since the Auvitek chips are EOL, they never will). I wouldn't object to a patch which removed the board profiles entirely in the interest of removing dead code.
It was certainly nice of Mike Krufky to work to get support into the open source driver before the product was released, but after four years it probably makes sense to remove the entries for products that never actually shipped.
Yeah, if nobody is using such devices, then we should get rid of them, but I prefer to have this on a separate patch, in order to give people the opportunity to complain.
So, if I'm understanding well, you're suggesting to add a patch removing those 5 entries (and the corresponding quirks on alsa), right?

Let's *not* remove DTV support for WOODBURY board -- it is not the business of the public whether or not the board shipped in mass-production. The board profile is in fact being used for some reference designs, and I still use my woodbury prototype to test the MXL tuner.
I am not the only person using this profile -- no not remove it, please.
correction: I still use both the woodbury prototype (to test the reference design) *and* the MXL version for testing the mxl tuner.
There is no reason to remove these profiles, the USB IDs will not be recycled
