Except it can't work (sorry for the misinformation) because
VIDIOC_G_TUNER is not correctly implemented yet (signal strenght

Thanks. The garbage at the top is from Michael's vbi experiments. Will
be corrected soon.

My question was if it looks better in w2k.
IOW: Does our driver suck or does the analog module suck?
