One will find that the device actually contains only an USB connector, antenna input, and nothing slot for a smart card . Additionally, a remote control is bundled in the package.
Based upon the analysis of USBsnoop logs, it appears that the control API used for the FX2 chip is the same as that employed by a DVBWorld reference design. In the bundled Windows driver/software, there are one firmware files, it is dvb-usb-dw3101.fw ,These may or may not have anything to do with this particular device .

- Cypress CY7C68013A (i.e. FX2LP) (USB bridge)
- PIC16LF72 (remote control)
Making it Work
To get the firmware file, download the drivers from the web[2] , unrar it and copy the dvb-usb-dw3101.fw firmware file to /lib/firmware/dvb-usb-dw3101.fw:
wget http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin/archive/tip.tar.bz2 sudo cp dvb-usb-dw3101.fw /lib/firmware/dvb-usb-dw3101.fw
