and got to this line:
make bzImage

and it started asking me MANY questions that I don't know the answer to. My 
guess is that if I answered these questions, I would answer wrong and wreck 
my box. Further, I am thinking there MUST be an easier way. Each time I 
install Suse, will I be confronted with recompiling the kernel just to get a 
component to work? That's not why I moved to Suse and left Nvidia cards.

Is there anyway to make the computer answer the questions automatically, by 
looking at how it is already installed? Are all TV cards such a pain? I heard 
that it is a nice card from several sources, but I would settle for a 
similiar card that is recognized by Suse automatically. Having to do this 
much work each time I reinstall would definately not work. I MUST be missing 
something - I heard rumors that the Hauppauge cards were fully supported and 
compatible with Linux (and even plug and play). 

Did I buy the wrong Hauppauge card to get the "ease of use" benefit?
