It would be in /var/log/messages or dmesg.  During the loading of ivtv
you should see a message like:
tveeprom: tuner = Philips FQ1236A MK4 (idx = 92, type = 57)
tuner: type set to 57 (Philips FQ1236A MK4) by ivtv i2c driver #0

tveeprom: tuner = Samsung TCPN 2121P30A (idx = 87, type = 68)
tuner: type set to 68 (Samsung TCPN 2121P30A) by ivtv i2c driver #0

There are several different Samsung tuners (I think 3).  I think mine is
the second Samsung version released.  Of course, I could be completely
wrong on this.

PS: If anyone knows of a place with Philips based PVR-500s forsale, I'd
love another one.
