According to the site, they have been for some time.

I'm running mine on the Ubuntu Breezy kernel. It works very well, but
there's a small bug[1] in that kernel (which I suspect comes directly
from upstream), which you'll need to fix in order to make it work.

I don't know if the problem is solved in 2.6.13. Try the breezy kernel,
see if that works (and I'd be very interested if it does; I've only got
the one card to test my changes on). If not, I can make the debs for my
modified kernel available.

As for Myth, I've been unable to make it work, but I didn't try very
hard (it's less trivial than just 'aptitude install mythtv').

HTH,

James.

Yes, definitely; we're replacing it with a completely different set
of scariness.
