With SuSE my WinTV card's tuner has never been identified by YaST in
9.1-3. When this happens, the tuner is set to 0 like yours.
Look at your card to identify the tuner so you can determine the
correct tuner number. I found some tuner numbers that worked
patialy by experimentation. When I finally pulled the sticker off
my tuner chip, the big one, I found the true identity. SuSE YaST
TV configuration had the model name and tuner number even though it
couldn't determine the correct number.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 7/5/05, <b class="gmail_sendername">birbilis</b> <<a href="mailto:birbilis@gmail.com">birbilis@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
i dont think its the v4l because i have included it in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf::<br><br>Section "Module"<br><br># This loads the DBE extension module.<br><br> Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
<br><br># This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables<br># initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module.<br> SubSection "extmod"<br> Option "omit
