I know that this is not answering your question but the next time you have the need for a card have a look at the TechniSat cards. A German comany. I have been using one of their cards for some years now. URL:
They also support Linux.
FWIW: I had two TechniSat SkyStar HD2 die on me i a matter of weeks (Tuner failed). But as long as they worked, they worked well out of the box and did not require any firmware.
Yeah, I know the brand very well, although I'm not sure if they do cards any moree. Regardless, I have a whole pile of the Hauppauge cards that I acquired for free, and they actually work very well.
I currently use a TeVii S470, that needs firmware (you need to DL seperately), but otherwise works nicely (though switching channels in kaffeine is quite slow at >= 3s).
