Yes, it is supported quite well, although picture could de improved using 
NotchFiler4xFsc or Square instead of what is used now.

Why don't You let it auto-detect your card type and tuner, delete options for 
cx88xx (or cx8800), however it is good idea to use options tor fda9887 
port1=0 port2=0 (Tested for PAL, I don't know about other tv standards).

Maybe the root of your problem is XF86DGANoDirectVideoMode listed above or ?
Does your Xv work properly? If so, have you tried another program, maybe 
tvtime? I had no problems with xawtv before, however I have not used it for a 
while.

In my case it looks nearly the same, the only difference is:

tuner 5-0061: microtune: companycode=3cbf part=42 rev=2f
tuner 5-0061: microtune MT2050 found, OK
