Devin, thanks for the reply.

Lsmod showed that "tuner" was NOT loaded (wonder why?), a "modprobe tuner" 
took care of that and now the HVR-1800 is displaying video perfectly and the 
tuning function works.  I guess that I'll have to add "tuner" into 
modprobe.preload.d????  Now if only I can get the sound functioning along with 
the video!
