Hi Brian,
Have no experience with this newer kernel, but up to 2.4.10 my
card was working smooth and flawlessly - it's a Hauppauge card
with a Brooktree chip. Some people reported also Typhoon cards
to be working. In general, yes, every card with Brooktree
chipest should work. SuSE has a section in YaST for configuring
a TV-card. Of course you will also need a viewer application
(xawtv, kwintv, zapping - choose the one you like more)...
For setting up a PC instead of TV is a bad idea if you're not
living alone :)
And a cordless keyboard should not look any different to the
kernel then a simple one...
Good luck
Eduard

Can anyone suggest a well supported TV tuner card for Linux ? I have been told that Brooktrout is the chip that I need. Also I am wondering what are the issues involved in setting up a PC for TV and Internet in the Lounge ? I would like to set up a Linux box with perhaps a large monitor but am not sure if it is feasable. A cordless keyboard would be good. Are these supported under Linux ?
Thanks Brian Marr
