Perhaps somebody else here knows the full story. This TBS card has only just been brought to my attention. I cannot tell what PCIe chip it uses and if it's supported. The alleged Linux driver download for it doesn't have the cxd2820r code in it, so I can't see that having much chance of working. Perhaps ask TBS directly what the status on this one is? I don't know of anybody who has used it yet (even in Windows).
