I can personally recommend the Brooktree BT848 Chipset, mine came as a "WinTV" brand card from CompUSA, it's supported at http://www.hauppauge.com/. I don't think it's commercially supported for Linux but I've never had any real issues getting it working with any of the the 2.4 and 2.6 kernels, and Suse 9.1 handles it fine.
Most all the application software I have tried runs well, MythTV, kdetv, and xawtv. I like kdetv best, has an attractive but simple interface.
