[mythtv-users] Checking Tuner Type

Hi (again),
I still have problems concerning channels not showing although the 
frequ. ids are correct. I have doublecheked all settings but to no 
avail. I have attached a list of all my channels and colored them (green 
= working, pink = not working).
Maybe I have the incorrect tuner set for my two Hauppauge cards (250 and 
350). I have tried different PCI slots, so there is no problem and I get 
the same problems using either input. This is my output of "/bin/dmesg | 
grep ivtv":

As you see I am using the ck111u version of the ivtv driver, but I have 
tried the 105 driver as well - resulting in the same issues. When I 
tried to find out the tuners using /sbin/modprobe tveeprom and then tail 
-50 /var/log/dmesg | grep tveeprom I do not get anything.

I would greatly appreciate your ideas and comments
