I seem to remember finding a whole schmeer of pages dedicated to TV apps for linux when I was mucking around in RH 7.2 with my 878TV card...can't quite remember any of the main pages, but I did have to tweak some things to get the XawTV working properly...after that, though, it did work like a charm...have you tried digging through http://freshmeat.net for any TV based linux applications?
