I have had a bit of fun with this move as I was previously running vdr 1.3.18 with a FF dvb-t card and the new place has cable network, so I decided to get a cable card for the job. The card in question is http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Supported_DVB_cards#Hauppauge.2FTT_Nexus-CA_rev1.x Yesterday it work like this: Feb 23 17:00:58 [kernel] saa7146: register extension 'dvb'.
