Has anyone here tried the Ion "Video 2 PC" converter? I picked one up
from the clearance shelf at Staples yesterday, but don't see any way to
use it on my Slackware workstations. I did plug it in and got the
following data.

From this I am guessing that it might be usable for audio capture, but
nothing about the video.
This is on a Slackware 14.0 system.
My wife can still use it on her MS-Windows 7 laptop, but I was hoping to
play with it as well.
Thank you,
