The SU1278 (and therefore your card) is supported when you apply the 
related patch posted a few days ago.

Since it needs more work to avoid conflicts with the other stv0299 based 
frontends it's not yet in CVS.

yes, that's right. The frontend module is the SU1278, the Demodulator 
chip is the stv0299.
