You're using "dvb-kernel", right? It might be possible that "zapping" 
does not check correctly which channel really has a usable tuner.

Please try "xawtv". It honours the tuner/no-tuner flag correctly.

You need to switch to the right input first. Input 0 is the dvb input, 
which has no tuner. Use input 1.

"scantv" won't work though, because it relies on parsing informations 
from the vertical blanking interval (vbi), which isn't implemented yet.

Select the frequency table "europe west" within "xawtv", then go to 
channels SE10 to SE17 with cursor up/down. There should be plenty of 
analog tv channels there.

CU
Michael.
