All looks fine, I think.

As long as you are hooking a coax cable directly to the tuner input, 
yes.

Ah, you're still running 0.11, so no profiles yet. Is that from within 
mythtvsetup, or in the frontend? I can't recall anymore what you can 
set where... It isn't a standard vl4 or mjpeg card though, it is a 
hardware mpeg2 card.

Also, check for proper permissions on the directories you use for your 
live TV buffer and recordings, as well as /dev/video0 and /dev/dsp (and 
make sure nothing else is using /dev/dsp).
