Hi all,
I have purchased a new TV tuner card, an intex PC TV tuner card which I have installed and I have been using it on windows.
I would like to configure this card on linux as well but not getting much information on google.
So if anyone knows how to configure it on linux and how to use it, please help me out .

Regards,
Misbahuddin

There is a package called mythTV which builds upon the video4linux (V4L) driver set. If your board is supported by V4L, then you're in good shape. MythTV is a PVR-oriented package, and there are even a couple of dedicated distributions where mythTV is the focal application. There are probably other plainer packages if you simply want to watch TV. Googling for video4linux may lead to some links.

Unfortunately the o/p never got back to report if it worked.
