As far as I am aware there is no need for a driver unless you are talking about a specific application. I have one of these cards and it works fine with Kaffeine provided you have a kernel that contains the support for the card. The support has been in the kernel for some time so unless your kernel is really old likely you have it.

With the card in the box try
# dmesg | grep DVB

This should show whether your card was seen on boot up
and what the kernel was able to do with it.

im using myth tv

i can only fine kaffeine player when installing kaffeine from
source, its some like sudo apt-get update install
then, it is somethin like sudo apt-get kaffeine

but it just simply installs a player for music

well on # dmesg | grep dvb
i get.......nothing like it just goes to same line
but when i type in

root@xxxx-desktop:/home/xxxx# dsmeg | grep video
[ 3.701676] pci 0000:00:0f.0: Boot video device

and thats all
can you help me see if i did something from ubuntu 9.04
other that that i will try a desktop not a server

you think it has to do something with bios and how its setup with ubuntu
im using vmware workstation 6.5.2 build-156.735

i had the same problem even when installing ubuntu on it self without any othe operating sytem
other that ubuntu 9.04. and did the same thing didn't read on boot i guess like you were trying to tell me if it woul read from the beginning

so im just going to try a desktop, other that that we can try to fix it

also at esc at boot says the following
ubuntu 9.04, kenel 1.26.28-11-geneic

Genaitech Digistar 103G support was added in kernel 2.6.18 in Sept of 2006. It looks like you need to upgrade your kernel. There are lots of sites that try to help you upgrade the kernel, one place to start is
Upgrade Linux kernel
