Overview
Seems to be based on the Twinhan (former Azureweave) AD-CP400 (VP-2040) Uses the Philips TDA10021 Demodulator, Phillips CU1216 Tuner and Digimove Mantis bridge chip.
Gets supported in kernel 2.6.33 see http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.33
CI module is not supported yet see http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2009-January/031470.html

Installation
Installation under Ubuntu (11-March-2010)
Prerequisites
On Debian-based distributions use the following command to install mercurial:
$ sudo apt-get install mercurial linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential
Install the ncurses-dev package in order to use make menuconfig on 64bit systems:
$ sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
on 32bit systems:
$ sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5-dev
Retrieve and compile the s2-liplianin mantis drivers:
$ [sudo] hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin $ cd s2-liplianin $ sudo make menuconfig
Deselect the Floppy-DTV module, as it is not needed and causing problems.
$ sudo make $ sudo make install $ sudo reboot
after reboot these modules should be loaded (check via $ lsmod):
dvb-core tda10021 cu1216 mantis b2c2-flexcop-pci
if not:
$ modprobe dvb-core $ modprobe tda10021 $ modprobe cu1216 $ modprobe mantis $ modprobe b2c2-flexcop-pci $ sudo reboot
and the device should be working
Following methods gave problems, above method works
Download and install the latest mantis drivers like this:
hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin cd s2-liplianin make sudo make install sudo reboot
Old mantis repository instructions: You need support for I²C in your Kernel for this card to work (that's normal). Download the necessary mantis-modules from Jusst.de or use Mercurial:
$ hg clone http://jusst.de/hg/mantis $ cd mantis $ make $ make install
If everything went well, the following modules will load:
dvb-core tda10021 cu1216 mantis b2c2-flexcop-pci
Troubleshooting
I had problems compiling all of the modules in the current mantis package from [1] but i could solve them by doing a make menuconfig and deselecting most modules except those i really needed (see above)
When encountering problems check http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_Obtain,_Build_and_Install_V4L-DVB_Device_Drivers#If_the_Modules_did_not_load_correctly_or_the_device_is_still_not_configured_correctly_for_use:
