They appear to be included with the<br>> linux kernel 2.6.32. If you are using an earlier kernel, you will<br>> need to download the drivers from the linuxtv.org. The project page<br>> for the driver is here: http://www.kernellabs.com/blog/?page_id=17<br>> <br>> In addition to the drivers from either source, you will need firmware.<br>> Details on getting the firmware are also in the link above.<br>> <br>> Keep in mind only digital tuning is supported currently (ATSC and<br>> QAM). Both tuners can work simultaneously and with multirec. I have<br>> had 4 recordings (2 on each) simultaneously with no problems on my<br>> system.<br><br>Thanks, that clears up a lot.<br><br>Right now I'm using the 2.6.31 kernel. I can wait until Fedora 12 incorporates 2.6.32.<br><br>I did find the firmware.<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Stefan<br></div></body></html>
