Can anyone tell me the steps to get a pinnacle 800i capture card working with the LinuxMCE? If not then what internal capture card should be used?

Ok more down the path but still on there:
I did not have a /dev/video or anything found on dmesg | grep -i video
So I followed the information on http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_HD_Card_(800i) to down load and build the driver the make and make install when without problem. When I reboot the system I had the following:
Boot video device is 0000:00:03.0
Allocate port service [0000:00:03.0:pcie00]
Still do not have a /dev/video. Is there another path I should be following to make and install the driver on LinuxMCE? Are there additional step that I need to follow. Can someone point me to a web page? Do I just need to reload LinuxMCE with the card installed?

Thanks for the quick answer. That took care of 1 & 2. Let me restate part B on 3 or maybe part B should have been 4.
4) After I installed the LinuxMCE I installed another card for cable input. It is a Pinnacle 800I (PCTV HD PCI). While this card is physically in the system how do configure the new card so that the LinuxMCE and MythTV can see and use it?

Ok I'm a newby to LinuxMCE but not to computers. I have questions on the following:
1) I can not log into the admin web page.
When I go to http://localhost/pluto-admin I do receive a logon page that ask for a username and password. I have tried both the "linuxmce" and the one user I created "billy" but was received and error saying that the user name and password do not match. What is the username I should be using or is there additional thing I need to setup before this is useable?
2) I have two 1.5TB drives installed on this system while I see that the main drive with the OS is loaded where should the second drive be mounted? I plan to use this as additional storage for the video system.
3) I have a HVR-2250 card from Hauppauge but can not find how to config this card. Not sure if there is a driver. Also I have a pinnacle PCTV HD card but it was installed into the system after I loaded the LinuxMCE system so how do I configure this card? If the LinuxMCE is the group is the one adding the driver for any caputure card I can help.
