I have just bought a DVICO FusionHDTV DVB-T card and it works a treat
under linux, running a 2.6.10 kernel.  Most analog cards are supported
if they use any of the most popular chipsets (bt848/bt878, saa7134 and
cx88) although you might have to google for particular cards.  I would
have to recommend digital over analog though.  The quality is just
amazing.

Nope.  Only when you have stuff for sale should you put something like
[for-sale] in the subject.
