Hi Stuart,

I believe that Micah at UNL had this card working at one point, and as
long as it presents a reasonable interface it should work with
Matterhorn.  It may still need a hardware scaler if the drivers do the
same thing as those for the VGA2USB.

Does anyone else have this card?  How did you get it working?
