I'm currently doing some tests with the newer drivers which are just
in userspace for that
device.
This would avoid having to recompile the driver everytime
http://mcentral.de/wiki/index.php5/DVBConfigFramework

it's not published yet but it also adds support for MacOSX by using
the same driver even!

the drx3975d driver is not part of the em28xx-new package anymore and
will be distributed
with that new system again (this solves all the legal issues with
trident (Micronas sold the chip
division to Trident recently)).
