I've been running a bttv-compatible TV card for almost 3 years now and
have been pretty happy with it. Basically take any of the cards that have
chipsets listed in the kernel (under Device Drivers > Multimedia > Video
for Linux). If you get a card that gives you their own custom kernel
module...you might get into compile issues if you don't have a specific
version of a vanilla-only kernel or such, so I'd recommend staying away
from those.
