With SuSE my WinTV card's tuner has never been identified by YaST in 9.1-3. When this happens, the tuner is set to 0 like yours. Look at your card to identify the tuner so you can determine the correct tuner number. I found some tuner numbers that worked patialy by experimentation. When I finally pulled the sticker off my tuner chip, the big one, I found the true identity. SuSE YaST TV configuration had the model name and tuner number even though it couldn't determine the correct number.
