Do you have digital broadcast? There are USB devices supposed to work with linux:

Not sure about analog. Again USB might be more likely but I don't know of anything that works with linux. The tuner module on these devices is pretty bulky. It would be hard to fit the the ones I've seen into a PCMCIA slot.
