The device uses the same tuner as the Twinhan Alpha. I'm wondering if the the rest of the stick/box is also identical to the Alpha. If so, it could be worth a try to load the firmware of the Alpha and see if the E30 will work with the Alpha-driver (vp7045), too. But it is risky, because the firmware can damage your E30... The best way would be to have the specs from the vendor (http://anysee.com/), but they also denied to make them public to help developers write OpenSource driver. The second best way would be to reverse-engineer the windows driver with usbsnoop or something, but this is very time-cosuming. Also, there are plenty of other USB2 device working 100% in Linux. (There is actually a good list of supported device in the DVB wiki, but currently unavailable, because of very very stupid idiots). At this point I would strongly recommend not to buy AnySee products when running them in Linux, until they are going to change their minds. best regards, Patrick. -- Mail: patrick.boettcher@xxxxxxx WWW: http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/
