IVC-268G-R20

Data sheet for this card can be found here: http://www.nextwarehouse.com/item/?876363_IEI_TECHNOLOGY_IVC268GR20
The IVC-268G-R20 uses a Techwell TW6802 chip, installation is similar to the KesCom PG104,
To use this capture card you need to compile the driver. For Ubuntu Server 12.04.04 LTS with 3.13 kernel the source can be found at https://gitorious.org/tw68/.
sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get install build-essential
mkdir techwell
cd techwell
SEE NOTE BELOW
git clone git://gitorious.org/tw68/smokeyjoness-tw68-v2.git
cd smokeyjoness-tw68-v2
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe tw68
(Note smokeyjoness-tw68-v2 was successfully installed on 64bit Server, for 32bit server (same hardware) smokeyjoness-tw68-v2 did not work so I use git clone git://gitorious.org/tw68/pocek-tw68-v2.git)
After compiling and "loading" the tw68 modules, you need to check that the modules are actually loaded (lsmod | grep tw). You should have the similar output:

~$ lsmod | grep tw

tw68 44633 2
videodev 86588 3 tw68
videobuf_dma_sg 18786 1 tw68
videobuf_core 25409 2 tw68,videobuf_dma_sgbtcx_risc 13400 1 tw68

~$ cd /dev you should see now video0, video1, video2, video3. This video card has dip SW to program card address (how it actually work could be checked later if someone has more then one card installed on linux box)
