this is the worst linux-compatibility i ever experienced ...
usbvision is found easily, but it will NOT compile on latest 2.6. kernels (2.6.7-2.6.9)
i finally compiled an older kernel and tried the device ... with a funny surprise: the picture is 1/2 VGA (very small tv-picture that is NOT resizable) and i have to go down with X resolution, to get a bigger tv-window, what makes the usage very un-handy :-(
the windows-driver uses compression and therefore somehow generates a bigger tv-window (resizable!)
tv-watching on this laptop is the only reason to boot to windows :-( ... hopefully, usbvision is becoming more stable and integrated in the 2.6. kernel tree
