Works very well, once the mess of setting up drivers and hacking the channels.conf file works.
The dual digital is known as Fusion HDTV card, and was also rebadged as an "Ultraview" card.
Note: This is NOT the "Dual Digital 2" or "Dual Digital 4"
The Dual Digital is the one with the USB loopback - otherwise, you have one of the newer cards that use different drivers.
There are some tricks to getting this card working, if you have a particular revision (1.4). This will probably mean building the drivers from www.linuxtv.org They may have been merged into the main kernel, not sure - I haven't played with it since FC5.
Make sure you also have the "bluebird" firmware, or the USB part may not work - see the links below for details.
There was also a frequency offset bug - I think it has been fixed now.
