I have an iball USB TV tuner card which only has Windows drivers. I could not get it to run on Ubuntu 13.04.

When I run lsusb, I get the following:

drdanand@drdanand-HP-Pavilion-g4-Notebook-PC:~$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 04f2:b2f4 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd 
drdanand@drdanand-HP-Pavilion-g4-Notebook-PC:~$ 

My device is the one that reads Afatech.

What do I do? Are there any properitary drivers? Please help.

First, you have to add this vid and pid in driver cx231x:

sudo modprobe cx231xx
echo "1b80 a418" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/cx231xx/new_id

then see dmesg and also /dev/videoX abd /dev/vbi, open VLC player, capture video, select video node and you can able to watch TV.
