I have used tvtime on the same computer, with the same TV-tuner card and same version of Ubuntu. But after a reinstall I did some time ago, it doesn't work. I have tried to fix it, but I have not been able to do it.

output of 'tvtime -v'
$ tvtime -v

*** If unsure, please check with your distribution to see if your

I noticed it said permission denied on the 7th line, so I tried running it with 'sudo' but it's pretty much the same:
$ sudo tvtime -v
