How do I know that my DVB-T card is correctly recognized?


I am trying to get KWorld DVB-T 220 card running under Mandriva 2006.
It is sort of recognised as saa7134 card.

lspci gives me:
00:0c.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7133 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev d0)
Subsystem: KWorld Computer Co. Ltd.: Unknown device 7201
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 17
Memory at fba00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2

dmesg gives me:
Linux video capture interface: v1.00
saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.12 loaded
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:0c.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
saa7133[0]: found at 0000:00:0c.0, rev: 208, irq: 17, latency: 64, mmio: 0xfba00000
saa7133[0]: subsystem: 17de:7201, board: UNKNOWN/GENERIC [card=0,autodetected]

saa7133[0]: registered device video0 [v4l2]

I tried several different cards with rmmod and moprobe saa7134 card=x
Sometimes tvtime told me no signal sometimes it did not say anything. I get a /dev/video0
and sometimes even more for example modprobe saa7134 card=2 gives
saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.12 loaded

saa7133[0]: board init: gpio is 28005
saa7133[0]: there are different flyvideo cards with different tuners
saa7133[0]: out there, you might have to use the tuner=<nr> insmod
saa7133[0]: option to override the default value.

saa7133[0]: registered device video0 [v4l2]

How do I know when I have found the right card definition and then what about the tuner?
