Well, if somebody has the specs for the Diamond Stealth-TV Tuner (or knows
what strings to pull in ordet to get it), I'll give it a shot at writing a
low-level driver for this specific tuner and a high-lever interface
generic enough to accomodate other tuners.. It should be pretty
straight-forward to write the driver (for any tuner), once the specs are
available; as for the other part, a TV-in-an-X-window which can take
drivers as modules sounds appealing :)
