i tried this so probably yes
/etc/modprobe.d/test.conf
##
options mt312 debug=1
options ds3000 debug=1
options dvb-usb-dw2102 debug=1
options dvb-usb disable_rc_polling=1
options dvb-usb-dw2102 keymap=2 demod=2
##

The tevii device should be supported by the linuxtv drivers:

############
hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb
cd v4l-dvb
make menuconfig disable/enable what you need
make&&  make install
poweroff
remove power/usb cables
replug the power to tevii device
then connect the usb
then poweron pc

Then i get this in my log:
modprobe dvb-usb-dw2102

now i have:

total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root     120 2010-05-07 14:23 .

###

Now i can also make use off the device except that my system gets slow 
and channel zapping takes ages.
i disabled the debug message for the remote with the option 
disable_rc_polling for dvb-usb.

only then you cannot use the remote :)

With kind regards
