I think the changes in 2.2.18pre2's bttv.c and friends have broken
something. Here's how things go:
solvent:/home/ian# /usr/local/bin/tv-on
insmod videodev
insmod i2c-core
insmod i2c-dev
insmod i2c
insmod tuner type=2
insmod msp3400
insmod bttv card=10
dmesg output:

i2c-dev.o: i2c /dev entries driver module
i2c-core.o: driver i2c-dev dummy driver registered.
i2c-dev.o: Registered 'ISA main adapter' as minor 0

i2c: initialized

So far so good. Let's fire up xawtv (Im using the arg '-c /dev/video0'
because video1 is for my OV511 USB camera. That works great with
2.2.18pre2's USB backport. USB modules aren't loaded now though to
minimize the culprits of this problem.)

... and it just waits there with a black 320x240 screen until I control-C
it. I'm using XFree86 4.0.1 with the binary NVIDIA .94 drivers. I don't
think it's a driver problem because I changed the Driver section in
XF86Config to "nv" (the NVIDIA driver that comes with 4.0.1) and I still
had the same problem. My X startup output says :

Any ideas?
