Hi Zsolt, In order to support a card in Linux in general, there needs to be a driver for the PCIe bridge, the demodulator and the tuner. Then these building blocks must be put together in a way that makes sense.
You've already identified the PCIe bridge (NXP SAA7164), the demodulator (TDA 10046) and the tuner (Taifun 6034T aka Infineon TUA6034). Now here comes the bad news - even if the PCIe bridge and the demod are supported by existing drivers, the TUA6034 is not supported by currently. You would need to write or get someone to write a driver for the TUA6034. In order for this to be possible you'd need to get the specifications from the manufacturer (often not possible, but worth trying) or reverse-engineer the Windows driver (often quite tricky, especially since taking a trace from a PCIe device can be a lot of work). Might I suggest that you add also a wiki page in the LinuxTV wiki if you're anyway looking at this? Basically you can document the same things you've very well documented on your website there, but please use the template that the other devices on the site are more or less using. http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/ASUS is a good starting point. Even if the conclusion is that the card will not work your research might save someone else time in the future.
