Hauppauge. Probably one of the best supported brands under linux. S-Video in and Composite can be done with an adapater into the S-Video. Since you'll be using an external source other than Coax you'll need to run the audio to the "line-in" on your sound card or piggy back from the Tuner card. Circuit City and/or Best Buy occasionally have Hauppauge. Also check the other large office stores. Otherwise it's off to the internet.
