Drivers
Status Report
This card is reported to work on Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex (8.10), Karmic Koala (9.10), and suSe 11.1. Should work with any distribution using a kernel supporting the latest V4L-DVB drivers.
Using latest drivers built on 9 Feb 2010 seem to support the ATSC tuning component just fine.
No Analog Support
There is currently (as of 9 Feb 2010) a firmware bug that appears to be inhibiting the function of the analog component of at least the Q model of the card.
Example of dmesg output from the kernel:
[ 10.733528] CORE cx23885[0]: subsystem: 0070:7790, board: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR1500Q [card=5,autodetected] [ 10.861449] tveeprom 1-0050: Encountered bad packet header [ff].

Old (April 2009) V4L-DVB Patch Required
Older V4L driver sets required a patch to the v4l code as of April 2009. More recent editions of the V4L drivers already have this patch committed and thus is not required to be applied.
You must download the v4l sources, verify that you either have the patch in the downloaded version or do the patch, and recompile. Description of patch is at http://linuxtv.org/hg/~stoth/cx23885-hvr1500/rev/7853c00870e1
Other The indicator light will not come on under Linux, but the card operates perfectly otherwise.
