Hello,
is it possible to have the opensuse project include in its tv card
installer the right source to get data from ?
it looks like the installers often times do not do their job properly
for Yast does not have all tv cards in it, so why do not directly use a
list up to date and take it where it is the freshest ?
: tv modules sources according to each kernel gives an up to date
information of the supported tv cards for one kernel , therefore it
seems a good choice to get the data from there and thus ease the install
process for tv cards hardware.
My current case : my provideo pv952 seems supported but the installer
can’t find the tuner even though i have the right modules in lsmod :
saa7314 and tveeprom to auto detect the tuner.

Thanks A l.o.t  ;-)

Yast takes the Tv card data directly from the Linux kernel (in this case it is in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.saa7134). According to the file your card should be supported.

What is exactly wrong? Where do you see the problem?

And please attach Yast logs and hwinfo output (see http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST ).
