The only known working driver for this WINTV USB device is usbvision (http://usbvision.sf.net). The installation step:

1. Download source:

 cvs -z3 d:pserver:anonymous@usbvision.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/usbvision co -P usbvision

2. Build: After successfull download, go to the src directory inside the source directory, i.e the directory where Makefile exists.

Then

sudo make

Note: if you fail to 'make', then probably you need to install first linux-header package. Run synaptic to do this, search 'linux-header' and choose one package which corresponds with the used kernel version, e.g. 2.6.x. Install with:

 sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers
 sudo apt-get install build-essential
 sudo make

Finally,

sudo make install sudo modprobe usbvision

to install compiled driver.

3. Configuring xawtv

Copy the xawtv.conf which comes with usbvision to ~/.xawtv
