We need more precise information - which model is it and preferably chipset (use lspci to find it)
There may be large differences between models of the same brand

As you can see from this page it has a Phillips chipset

This post in the Ubuntu forum claims that there is a support in the kernel for this chipset

There's also a recommendation for the Tvtime application for testing and using the card.

PS Shrink your avatar as I asked you to do. One of your posts takes about 1/2 of my 17 inch monitor

TVtime is in synaptics (or apt-get if you prefer that)
Always do a search in synaptics if you want to find software

Sorry did not realize KDE - the counterpart there is Adept and apt-get always work

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install tvtime

If tvtime is not found you must add some repository - I've asked you to post your repositories.lst in one of the may posts from you
