Add:

options OVERRIDE_TUNER=<x>

to your kernel config file, and rebuild.

Replace <x> with one of the following: (from /sys/pci/brooktree848.c)

#define NO_TUNER                0
#define TEMIC_NTSC              1
#define TEMIC_PAL               2
#define TEMIC_SECAM             3
#define PHILIPS_NTSC            4
#define PHILIPS_PAL             5
#define PHILIPS_SECAM           6
#define TEMIC_PALI              7
#define PHILIPS_PALI            8
#define PHILIPS_FR1236_NTSC     9

For your case, I would try one of 2, 5, 7, or 8.

Note to the developers: This should really be documented somewhere,
perhaps in the LINT config file?
