Here is some info...

What does the syslog say when you modprobe bttv directly? Also, are you sure that the card shows up in lspci? (sounds like it does, since kudzu sees it). I'm running a quasi-embedded system (really just a pc/104+ stack, so it's not really embedded), also with a serial console, and only had to deal with the quirks on the pc/104+ bt878 card that I'm using (a Sensoray 311). Finally, I'd suggest just switching kudzu off. who knows what it's trying to do to your system.
