There are a very wide variety of Happauge cards, some even 
designed/built different OEM. If it was a few years ago. it's likely 
current ones arn't the same chipset.

Can you be more specific as to model and where/what source of driver?

I have several analogue  Happauge cards of that era,  it  would be  
good  to have  at  least one working on current version of  Ubuntu.
