Drivers

Currently unsupported in linux.

Linux works with video device (analog input).
DVB-S was checked with binary at FC6 from compro but nothing...

Edit: This card might not be supported yet, but I can confirm that it works in linux with a patched kernel - please see my comments on the discussion page.
