My Nova T 500 has never given me a single problem. Possibly that's
because every time I update my kernel, I download, build and install the
latest v4l-dvb drivers, as explained here: 
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_Obtain,_Build_and_Install_V4L-DVB_Device_Drivers.
And I use the latest firmware from here: 
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-NOVA-T-500.

On the other hand, different versions use different chips, so I
may just have been lucky in which version I bought.
