I got a tv tuner from a friend and used it in Linux. I got it to work fine with cable tv and captions. Then after a few weeks, the captions went bad sometimes. Then a while after that, the tuner got stuck on one station. Then it couldn't get any signal. Now the TVtime program shuts down right after it starts up. When I try the xaw tv program, I get one channel with a lousy black and white picture. Is the tv tuner dead?

Hmm not sure which hardware or driver are bad.

Now the tv program stays open and finds no signal. The tv tuner is a KWorld one.
