You're welcome.
Linux 2.6.9 contains a broken definition for the LG TAPE tuner. Easiest
fix is to upgrade to Linux 2.6.10. Otherwise, apply the patch as
directed by the README at the link above.
My impression from reading the documentation at that URL is that even a stock 2.6.9 should work
for TV
, albeit with some distortion.
primarily on the upper channels of TV.
I've since verifiedWhen I wrote that patch, I was interested in getting TV tuning to work, and I didn't have the datasheet for the tuner. I never tested it with radio, but I've since gotten the datasheet for the tuner and corrected the definition, so I know--without question--that the tuner definition in 2.6.9 is broken. It's quite possible that it breaks radio tuning.
that TV reception is working on this card -- both sound and video. However, when I run the 'radio' application:
$ radio -f 89.7 set to freq 89.69 Running: aplay -f dat < /dev/video24 Playing raw data 'stdin' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Stereo
I get nothing but silence.
IMHO, your time is much better spent debugging a known-working defintion for your tuner. If you really want to diagnose the effect of the bad tuner definition on radio tuning, feel free to do so, but there's a good definition that's easily available, so if you instead just want radio, I highly recommend installing a good tuner module. (Easiest approach is still 2.6.10.)
