My System: Skymaster DCI9900 + PC/twinhan combination. 80cm dish. GBPVR with 2 DTTV cards +hauppauge Media MVP

You could put multiple cards in a common PC and there are DVB-S cards available with common interface slots so that you could plug in a CAM or you could continue with your Vaiccess receiver and feed that into the PC through an analogue TV card and control the box from the PC with an IR blaster. You could distribute to remote TVs via CAT5 cabling and use something like the Hauppauge MediaMVP ot Popcorn Hour at each TV. If you aren't committed to Linux take a look at GBPVR - runs on Windows and is free.
