Are you sure you unloaded all modules before you tried the new drivers? There is one known issue with this card: The the tuner module *must not* be loaded before the saa7134 module, otherwise no tuner will be found, only the IF chip. This is what i see from your log. So please try the following: - install the drivers ("make install" as root) - remove all video related modules or better: reboot - do a "modprobe saa7134", nothing else. Does it work now?
