Hi,
I'm trying to use AVerTV Volar HD PRO (A835) in Linux, but it seems the USB receiver is not supported by current kernel (2.6.34-rc5). Sending some logs and configuration, let me know if you need some more. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Honza

lsusb looks like AF9035. Could you look windows driver .inf file content and file names to ensure that?
