Great.  That means you have the new LG TAPC H791F tuner.  Fortunately, 
it should function properly with tuner=39 ( TUNER_LG_NTSC_NEW_TAPC ).  
Therefore, edit your /etc/mod{probe,ules}.conf and change your tuner 
type from 2 to 39.  Ideally, ensure you have the line:

options ivtv tuner=39

and do not specify any options for the tuner module.  And, if that 
doesn't work (it's been a long time since I've used 0.1.9, so I can't 
remember if it supports the new style of setting the tuner type), use 
the deprecated approach:

options tuner type=39

and do not specify a tuner attribute to the ivtv options.

And watch your snow melt away...
