Is there some "generic" TV card, as the Vesa is for video?
I never could get my S3 video card to work fully and properly, and
always am configuring video for vesa, so I get with it all I need.
Similarly with sound: I am just getting the chipset of motherboard from
MB manual (or nearest one), I have an on-board AC97, and it works with
any "generic" driver. (Eg. MB chipset is 815, but it works fine with 810
driver.)
More detailed "tweaking" and fumbling I leave for "better times". (-: I
mean when I already have a functional system, and someday really need
some "features" brought only by exact driver.
Then, I usually am prone to do pretty rural and mean things with
non-functional new Linux installations: I just copy, for instance,
XF86Config from one Linux to the new one. (-;
So, would that help if you would copy your config files for TV card from
SuSE to the Gentoo?
