Hi,
Sorry for not being complete. I do have the latest drivers (download
today), and I have never seen the box working on Linux, but know from
the Wiki that it should. I tried a few months ago as well, it didn't
work back then either but back then I wasn't sure if it was my fault or
something else. Back then I also had the latest drivers, with the stock
kernel the device wouldn't be detected at that moment.
There is a chance my box is a new revision. There's still the flexcop
and MT352 inside though, I have no idea what could be new.

Now that I've seen my Afatech locking I'm sure my Linux distro, kaffeine

there. And yes, it works just fine on Bill's OS, the antenna is fine as
well and the -/+167 trick doesn't help.
I'm willing to help any developer to make it supported again. I already
updated the wiki.
Get the latest drivers from the linuxtv.org Hg repository if you haven't
already. If they don't work and it used to work under linux, try updating
to an older version and see if you can find where it broke.
If you know it worked in kernel 2.6.x, you can look at the release date for
the _previous_ kernel and update v4l-dvb hg to around a week after that
date. For example, if it worked on 2.6.18, then check 2.6.17's release
date, Jun 18th, and get a revision from around a week after that, say
revision 4262. That's about what will have been in 2.6.18. There is no
revision that exactly matches a given kernel but, that will be reasonably
close.
