video capture with KWorld DVD Maker USB 2.0

[Russ Cook <russcook@mbo.net>]

I bought this product (KWorld DVD Maker USB 2.0) at Fry's electronics to
convert VHS tapes of my kids to DVDs.  It works on my wife's windows 
machine, but the audio is distorted because she has no line-in port.
My Linux machine has line-in, but it doesn't recognize the product.
I have an ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard, with dual core AMD-64 
processor, and e-GeForce 7950 GT graphics card.  My current kernel is
2.6.23, compiled for 64 bit.
Is anyone successfully using the KWorld USB product under Linux?  If
so, can you offer me some help or tips for getting mine to work?

Thanks  much,
 Russ
