There are two versions of the Megasky to my knowledge: one based on the m9206 chip and another based on the gl861 chip. I myself have got one based on the gl861 chip. I think this is the one that you get when you buy one nowdays. The driver in the repository doesn't work for me yet. Others and I are working to get the driver to work. But it can take some time before a reliable driver will be available. I don't know about the Twinhan DTV Alpha's driver status. I would recommend you go with a "card" that is well supported.
