Not really, I have a twinhan dvb-t dst terr pci card, which works but not all that well although I suspect later kernels work better with this card. (Although it does work with Ubuntu Hoary out the box if you tweak a few bits).
Interesting seeing as I already run Hoary. I must say that every time I install Ubuntu (or add some hardware to an existing Ubuntu machine) I become more and more impressed with it's hardware support. I always rated SuSE quite highly in this respect but Ubuntu seems to do even better. (and they seem have a pretty elegant solution to the Nvidia driver redistribution issues)
There is this http://www.freecom.com/ecNewsitem.asp?ID=4121 which has Linux support (so I am led to believe) which does look rather interesting though, and would possibly be the first thing on my shopping list if I was looking for a new card today.
Ahh Cheers for that, it looks like it may fit the job, Could be handy as a device that I could also use on my laptop. Although I wonder how the included antenna is going to cope with my rather weak DVB reception. I think this could be the one once I have verified your thoughts on potential Linux compatibility.
I don't think that there are any cards that support tits-up-tv that work with Linux or Windows but I could be wrong. There is a way to get content from Xtraview and "Red hot tv"
Hmm Red hot TV doesn't sound like the sort of content I am looking for :-)
