The card has a builtin audio A/D converter. It is driven by the tvaudio driver.
I has a regular /dev/dsp (/dev/snd or whatever it is called these days...) device,
where the audio can be read.

Connecting wires inside the PC is so last century ;-)

(My card is a hauppauge WinTV PCI FM)
(BTW, is there an official radio application on ubuntu ? non official ?)
