Go to http://www.cicese.mx/~mirsev/Linux/DC10plus and download the newer
drivers, the old ones in the kernel are - well - kind of old (0.7, vs.
0.8 or 0.9 on the website).

then, just 'make' and 'make install'. Please note that whenever you
install a new kernel, you will need to redo this (until the drivers in
the kernel have been upgraded to the latest version...). Then, in the
update script (provided with the tarball), you might want to change one
option at the bottom of ths script where 'zoran' is loaded: default is
default_norm=1, which is NTSC, you might want to change it to
default_norm=0 (PAL) or 2 (SECAM). then, "./update dc10plus" is all you
need.

If your card works now (xawtv/lavrec), you could possibly add some lines
to your /etc/modules.conf to automate this all for next boots:
---
alias char-major-81 zoran
options zoran default_norm=0 lock_norm=0 pass_through=0
pre-install zoran ( /sbin/insmod -f videodev; \
                    /sbin/insmod -f i2c-old; \
                    /sbin/insmod -f saa7110; \
                    /sbin/insmod -f adv7175 )
---
That's all :-).
