I running SuSE 10.2 with 2.6.18 kern. and ivtv 0.8.2
with pvr-500mce. The new samsungtuner is supported but it seems that the driver
having problem with it. Some channels works, some dont.

I have posted a lot of messages to this list, but no conclution.

As I can see it work worse as higher the frequense goes.

The only way I got it to work is with older kernel and 0.6x-driver, no support 
to this tuner, but when I forced it to another older samsung-tuner it worked, 
just little bad picturequality.

Someone else having trouble with the new pvr-cards?

Thanks in advance, Tobias

(See my earlier postings for more info)
