Nope. No /dev/radio on my system (Ubuntu 10.04, kernel 
2.6.32-33-generic). I'm using Steven Toth's firmware version 1.0.3. I'm 
pretty sure his release notes said only DVB-T works and nothing else.

I suppose you'll never get any access to or info about the device if the 
firmware doesn't support it.
