I've just bought a Technotrend S-1401 which seems to work OK with
2.6.24, I've not got my dish up yet to try out the signal but the card
is detected and I have no nasty error messages.

As for the EPG, I noticed a patch went into trunk last week to decode
the EIT data. I'm not sure if this is going into -fixes (I've not been
following the -dev thread) but i'm going to try apply the patch to
fixes soon.
