The tuner type is auto-detected, so you don't have to set it manually. > # modprobe ivtv cardtype=2 ivtv_std=2 tuner=38 tda9887=0 You can remove the 'tuner=38' bit from that line. In fact, you shouldn't need the cardtype or ivtv_std part either, unless it's not automatically detected. You should probably try 'modprobe ivtv' without any options, and only add the ones that you need. > kernel: tveeprom: tuner = LG S001D MK3 (idx = 60, type = 4) This indicates that the tuner type is actually 4 (as automatically detected by the tveeprom module), not 38.
