The saa chip should work out of the box on any recent kernel. I have Ubuntu jaunty with a 2.6.28 kernel and my tv card (ASUS) worked without any further intervention on my part. Well, not really, the sound is not working yet but I have found a couple of suggestions I still need to try out. Apparently, you need to prevent mythtv from managing sound itself.
