I can *seriously* recommend this USB/Sky-Link solution http://www.heenan.me.uk/control-sky-from-pc/

From walking through the front door and seeing the package had arrived to getting mythtv changing channels took < 5 minutes, and that included compiling libusb and the control prog and making up a short bit of coax to link the box to the Sky box.
