The list of supported devices is independent of the used linux
distribution. As long you are using a 2.6 kernel you can always install
the most up-to-date standalone driver from the linuxtv CVS, a list of
supported devices is maintained in the linuxtv.org wiki:

please help to keep this list up-to-date,
enjoy,
