    Support is not a matter of card brand but used chips (as with everything else in linux )

    I think this card is based on the SAA7162 (since it's a PCI-E device); someone is already working on a driver but there's nothing usable available yet.

    IIRC the Hauppauge HVR3000 is supported and
    has a similar featureset (minus the analog tv capability).
    Better ask on the linuxtv mailinglist to be sure ( mailto:[email protected] )

    HTH!
