@exx:i am soon gonna buy a TV tuner card after researching which card is best supported in Linux.
You would be better off getting one of the Pixelview Tv Tuner cards since I hear that they use the bt878 modules to get themselves running. Pinnacle can be configured if you were to work a bit. My recommendation is Pixelview .

BTW,how do u share between TV and PC?in my case i have just a cable plugged into TV.what shud i do to get the cable to my room which is a lil far?does there any splitter/connector that we need to use?
I have sort of a divider made out of wood in the main hall so no one notices the wire going through the top of the divider . Your idea is correct yo would use a splitter to divide the line and then route one of them to your room. There is no specificied splitter / connector required. Please note that if the connection made isnt upto mark then you will notice a small degradation in picture, which is why I would recommend letting the Cable Tv Providers to do the same.
