Is there a DVB-S2 card on the market yet with these features:

    1) DVB-S2 (QPSK, 8PSK) and DVB-S modes fully supported in Linux
(i.e. not experimental, not requiring sifting through different driver sources
        to try to find one that works)

2) Has no software/hardware data rate limitations (i.e. all symbol rates supported, no problems locking
        any symbol rate the card supports)

3) Available to U.S. purchasers (no country restrictions when trying to buy the card)

4) Delivers a full transport stream without filtering of any kind by the hardware.

I've been using the Turbosight TBS6920 for a while now, with very good results. It's a PCI device based on the Conexant CX23885 chipset. I'm pretty sure it meets all your requirements.

I've also used the TechnoTrend TT-S3200 which is PCI based but there do appear some problems with some of the more exotic symbol rates. I've used a patch to support high symbol rates but my question as to the safety of doing this remains unanswered. There should be a new S2 card from TechnoTrend, the TT-S6400 but it has been delayed since early in the year and who knows if it will ever see the light of day.

All the best,

Lou
