You can not configure that card with yast. Yast does not know how to install the firmware, you have to do that your self. All yast sees is the pci info from the bus.
You have to copy the firmware to /lib/firmware/ivtv-fw-dec.bin and /lib/firmware/ivtv-fw-enc.bin (one for decodeing one for encodeing). You get these out of the windows drivers with a utility which you can find here: http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Firmware
I followed the instructions on the above link and there was no change. Although the instructions said to copy the firmware into /lib/modules, that did not make any difference. However, I noticed that you said to copy the firmware to /lib/firmware, so I did and there was some progress. This time after clicking scan the channels, I get the following: ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYMENU(id=134217728;index=1;name="44.1 kHz";reserved=88): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYMENU(id=134217731;index=1;name="Stereo";reserved=88): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYMENU(id=134217733;index=1;name="None";reserved=88): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYMENU(id=134217735;index=1;name="Copyright off";reserved=88): Invalid argument invalid value for input: television valid choices for "input": "Composite 0", "Composite 1", "Composite 2", "Composite 3", "Tuner 0", "Composite 4", "S-Video 0", "S-Video 1", "S-Video 2", "S-Video 3" 1 ( 73.25 MHz): No station 2 ( 55.25 MHz): No station 3 ( 61.25 MHz): No station 4 ( 67.25 MHz): No station 5 ( 77.25 MHz): No station 6 ( 83.25 MHz): No station 7 (175.25 MHz): No station 8 (181.25 MHz): No station 9 (187.25 MHz): No station 10 (193.25 MHz): No station So it looks like I'm a step closer but no luck yet :P
