I wish I had contacted this list sooner, as I spent considerable time muddling through based on googling the device. I followed Douglas's link to build the v4l-dvb sources, but am now getting fatal errors when I try to modprobe the em28xx module. I tried to follow the ubuntu 8.04-specific fix instructions, but to no avail. I took the plunge and bought an ATI HDTV wonder, and will receive it in a few days. I very much hope that setting this up is considerably easier that the USB 2800RF. I am a bit worried that all the messing around with linux headers, sources and the v4l packages may upset the installation of my new card, though. If someone could please describe how to get back close to a "virgin" state i.e. completely remove v4l, modules and reinstall from scratch, I'd be very grateful. Sorry I can't devote more time to this - I know how important it is to the community as a whole to improve legacy hardware support.
