Just a WAG: make sure you are using the correct tuner
type. Try a tuner modprobe command like "modprobe
tuner type=xx" and try different values (or change it
in the modules config files). I think 39 and 47 are
common. (Uh, also make sure your antenna is plugged
in to the correct input. ;) There's more info about
this around, I'm sure there's stuff about this here:
