    Hi Brett,<br>
    <br>
    Just to clarify - I meant DVB-T, this is the standard for
    Terrestrial DVB. DVB-S is for Satellite broadcast services.<br>
    <br>
    Regards,<br>

        Has anyone been successful in getting a TV Tuner to work with
        Linux?<br>
        <br>
        The distribution with which I would be likely to run one, if I
        can get<br>
        one to work, would e Debian 6.<br>
        <br>
        In the Synaptic packages, in search for "tv tuner", I found
        packages<br>
        (the driver suite?) for the Silicon Dust HD Home Run dual

        tuner, but I do not know whether that one is compatible with<br>

        Thank you in anticipation.<br>
