It's been mentioned here before; if you reboot (or boot Windows and
then boot to Linux), bttv usually doesn't find the tuner. It only 
works if you boot to Linux after a power-off. It's a tad annoying.
Windows doesn't have a problem with reboots, so I don't think it's
a problem with the mt2032 chip as such.

I use bttv 0.9.4, but 0.7.103 apparently behaves the same way.
