Not to mention that I've discussed my 3500 TV card right here on this
list - so he didn't search the archives very well either ;-)

Actually it should. I used mine with Freevo under Mandrake 9.1. Pre
January 2004 the tuner wouldn't work with Mandrake 9.2 so I bought
another tuner - something incompatible with the kernel, but it looks
like they've updated since the last attempt I made.
I still use mine for the TV out using the drivers now included in the
Kernel, and purchased a TV-Wonder VE. I can't seem to get it to
overscan, so I have about a half-inch black border on my 27" TV ( so I
guess it's a 25" now ;-)
I found the S-Video connection to be rather poor though and am using the
composite out.
