The only thing that I can imagine is you found this here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/vfl/msg09927.html

That was the first feedback for an XP Expert Pal _at all_ at a point where 
nobody could have foreseen the gpio settings there. It's half a year old and 
marked as in evaluation process.
To try it out might be a good exercise to get an idea of what others have gone 
through to get that stuff working ;). Even that was only off by 3 bits.

The latest I can remember then was here 
http://www.spinics.net/lists/vfl/msg11150.html
and the following reply from Torsten that he now has a user with the Pal 
variant working nicly with the Ntsc GPIOs. Game over :)

And guess also a look into cx88-cards.c and CX2388xCard_Types.cpp would mean 
one exciting experience less then. However, AFAIK it is not related to the 
above, since we are all using the same settings for long now, except this gpio3 
first.

By all means, with that card I'd be interested in :)

Greetings,
Hermann
