for your first question: http://www.linuxpackages.net/search_...er=9.1&name=tv

For your second question, I'd suggest you search the forums, there will be hundreds of similar problems.

For your third, we need a little more info, what keyboard, and what exactly do you mean by keyboard srtring typing r a while.
Hopefully we can help.
cheers

open a terminal (console)
type
xwmconfig

choose the new xface you want such as gnome (will appear as xinit.gnome)
Enter.

Logout xwindows and startx again.

For XawTV You'll need motif of openmotif or lesstif, and don't install the RPM, compile it from source. There may be a few other things you'll need, though I'm not sure. I havn't had my tvtuner in *nix for a while.

The xawtv homepage is here, it should explain what is necessary.
