Getting a WinTV PVR-350 working

Fri May 16 18:23:35 UTC 2008

Hi,

Just an update.  I booted Xubuntu 8.04 with my card tonight.  It works great
under Linux (hate to say it!!).  Here is the dmesg output:

I loaded windows up too to get the output of Hauppauge's Prodinfo utility:

The only oddity I can see is the SA7129 decoder from the linux dmesg. 
Any ideas?

Thanks,
