From the web site:

The primary goal of the IvyTV Project is to create a kernel driver for the 
iTVC15 familiy of MPEG codecs. The iTVC15 family includes the iTVC15 
(CX24315) and iTVC16 (CX24316). These chips are commonly found on Hauppauge's 
WinTV PVR-250 and PVR-350 TV capture cards. 

The driver has achieved stable capture and is rapidly approaching a general 
release that is V4L2 compliant. Initially the cards will only support MPEG 1 
and 2 compressed capture but research continues on the card's YUV and VBI 
capabilities and playback of compressed streams. 

I've compiled and used these drivers on a friends machine with MythTV, it 
works but is still a little rough.
