Hm.... Mine is streamtuner-0.10.0-mdk and that works excellent in my 9.2 environment. Are you on 9.2 ?? And maybe there an issue with dependencies if you install from "raw" rpm (rpm -ivh streamtuner) ? Suggestions : try to locate 0.10.0 first (0.10.2 could be a "cooker" version, not intended for 9.2). Then, download the file to some directory. Finally,as root, type : "urpmi streamtuner-0.10.0-blablablabla.rpm". That should at least give you some hints about missing dependencies, if any).
