You're right.  I'm currently downloading all the deb packages.  I
thought I'd try to compile from source to get the latest (0.29).
Deb-multimedia only has 0.28 but that should be enough to see if the
tuner (dualHD, 955D as reported by lsusb) is visible without installing
a custom ubuntu kernel, which I'd rather avoid.

Thanks for this tip.  I'll look into it.

Does this use the same driver as the dualHD? Did you need to use
additional drivers or is the standard kernel sufficient? Which
kernel/distribution are you using?

Thanks for replying.
