Thanks, Phil, I've been pretty much living by that lunapark6.com web page. The tuner itself seems to work, though the downside is that the experimental drivers completely broke my PVR-USB2 external tuner when I installed them... It really is this last little detail about channel selection in Freevo that I am wondering about. So as it currently stands, Freevo has no concept of channels with major and minor components? I have been able to use the scan application from dvb-utils to get some valid channels with their associated PIDs, I just don't know how to put that information in a channel list or feed it through to a relevant tv plugin.
