When I wanted info on my capture card (Matrox Marvel G200TV) I put "Matrox
Marvel Linux" into google and came up with the Marvel-Linux home page.
After reading the driver docs It was clear that it supported V4l. That's
pretty much the same approach I use for any new hardware on Linux so maybe
something similar would work for you.
