Making it Work

Doesn't work in Linux Ubuntu 9.10. Can't find any experimental drivers out there.

NOTE: Device identifies itself differently from the sticker on the back (!) - both dmesg and lsusb say it is a "DVB-T02Q MCE", while the sticker on the back says "TVGo DVB-T02PRO".

Firmware

Drivers

Can't find any...
