It's 2011....I'm here in the UK...looking to find a DVB TV card that can be made to work with 11.04

Looking for something that is currently available.

Any thoughts please??

Have you tried a google search for "dvb-t uk"? You should find something like a Freeview usb stick that works with Ubuntu. There are also cards available.

Some googling brought me to this for mythbuntu (which has instructions for installing under 11.04 Natty): http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_novafw.php This leads to a look-up in amazon.uk. Is this what you are looking for? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hauppauge-Wi.../dp/B000I1RHWA

Thanks for that jkirchner....I had already stumbled across that page
...but failed to scroll down

If anyone has experience of anything that works for them, then I'd still like to know
