Well, not exactly.
The Linux DVB API can be found at linuxtv.org.
Convergence, the company behind linuxtv.org, was finally not taken over by Lineo but is still looking for investors.
Convergence is a founding member of the TV Linux Alliance and will continue to fight for Open Source software in our future TV sets because we don't want big brother in our living rooms.
With our Open Source (GPL) drivers for the Siemens Satellite Receiver Card you can access Europe Online (EON). Should be possible to access other Providers as well.
See Linuxtv for the drivers and more information about the PCI card

Linux DVB API
By the way: this is the API the Nokia Mediaterminal uses. They are going to opensource their software on the OST website.
if you can prove that, OpenTV might have a problem.
