Any standard 2.6.28+ kernel will support fully the HVR-4000 with S,S2,T,
AnalogTV and Radio. Support for S2 in Mythtv is a different story and it
not needed in NZ as there is no S2 signals apart from the Sky HD
Channels which won't work with the not to be named card software yet.
(or I may be wrong if anyone can point to be any non-encryted S2 signals
available from NZ)
