Hello,
Recently lost my TV and have been considering installing a TV card in my 
PC as a replacement.

I have a 120GB HD servicing 3 operating systems (XP, SUSE Linux, and 
FreeBSD, 5.4), an ASUS P4P800-VM motherboard with 512 MB RAM and a 
2.8GHz Intel CPU.  The motherboard also has an integrated Intel Extreme 
Graphics 2 that provides 3D/2D graphics.

So far, most, if not all, of the cards recommended in the bktr(4) man 
page point to Windows as the "required" OS.  Is there a card more, or 
less, native to, or that was designed for use in UNIX?  FM reception not 
absolutely necessary.

I'm not a member of this particular mailing list.  Please cc me with 
your response.

thnx,
Bob Perry
