Xceive.. Forget it. There is code for that, even code for Linux, but it 
was released by Rechberger and he's not planning on getting it to 
v4l-dvb in any way. In his last mail he said something about a userspace 
driver..  I'm not sure how that'll have to integrate with v4l-dvb.

I'd go look out for another TV-card right now.
