Hi all,

I have just upgraded to Jaunty and am having some issues with my tv tuner card reception. It is a Leadtek DTV2000H card, which I had working perfectly on Intrepid in metv/kaffeine/mythtv etc.

Since upgrading to jaunty, my signal strength has dropped dramatically. I used to use a tiny little stick aerial that picked up all channels perfectly. I have since invested in a much larger aerial+amplifier and am still suffering from not being able to lock to channels.

This is not a program-specific issue as it is replicable across xine/mythtv/metv/kaffeine. Any possible leads would be very much appreciated!

Thanks!
