Andy,
Thanks for the info. See below for the data you requested and v4l2-ctl stuff. As an FYI, I did all of the below over ssh, with X11 forwarding just fine.
After trying all kinds of mplayer incantations, this at least rendered an empty overlay box. mplayer tv:// tv=driver=v4l2:input=1:width=320:height=240:device=/dev/video0:freq=67.25 -vo x11
Changing the input number did not change the following output in any way.
Playing tv://.
TV file format detected.
Selected driver: dummy
name: NULL-TV

Selected input hasn't got a tuner!

############################
Using v4l2-ctl as root to force setting the tuner, standard, and a frequency doesn't improve mplayer's failure to recognize a tuner interface. As regular user, no changes were applied.... ls -l /dev/video0 gets me crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 2008-07-26 21:10 /dev/video0. My user is in video.
I'll increase debugging on the kernel modules to see what I get and report back. If any of the information provided assists resolving the situation, let me know.
Michael
lspci -v gives me the following output.
