Nice one - do you mean this card:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hauppauge-WinTV-S2-HD-Satellite-Tuner/dp/B000OILP7K?
Are they reliable? I've heard the drivers were a bit flaky a while
ago, but that may be old information. Was it easy to set up or was
there lots of fiddling around involved (kernel compilation etc)?

cheers,
James
