Did you have a particular kernel/ivtv version combination in mind? I'm running linux-2.6.16.1 with ivtv-0.6.1, and the only tuner module I have available is the one in linux-2.6.16.1 I am torn between trying to get this working, and just RMA'ing my Samsung board back to NewEgg and hope to exchange it for the "old" model ... --Rob
