Dear List,
I have this Kworld MPEG tv-tunner with PHILIPS chipset but which is detected by SuSE as bt878.
Problem is when using YaST to configure the tunner, it scans for programs but none is found. It looks like the tv cable provider would be offline. However, in those frequency ranges, channels are detected well under windows, and windows identifies the tunner as having Philips chipset.
I also find this link regarding other distro, but I will not renounce to SuSE no matter what: http://www.linux360.ro/forum/viewtopic.php?t=748&postdays=0&postorder=asc& start=15
Can you please help me get this work? I would really appreciate it. It's actually for a very good friend, so :).

Anton, Which version of SuSE and which version of the kernel? A dmesg, and /etc/modprobe.config or the equivalent would help a lot. Cheers, Dave PS: This is what I get on my system with my card.
