test_ioctl -u 0xff

other useful commands:

test_ioctl --set-freq=tuner=<t>,freq=<f>  -- sets frequency to f/16 Mhz using tuner type t 

test_ioctl -p 4 -- sets tuner to RF input
test_ioctl -p 5 -- on my card, sets input to Composite Video

test_ioctl -a  -- prints a buch of info about the card settings

insmod tveeprom; dmesg | tail         -- get some info about your card's tuner chip

Question: What model number is your card (the 5 dicit number on the label), aso returned by above command?

Cheers,
JohnO
