Jeremy,

The webcam program that comes with xawtv is very simple, and worked
in my case, where xawtv didn't.
Your problem is different from the one I had... So I'm guessing.

Did you check the 'dmesg' command? Check if it indicates that your bttv
driver was installed correctly. Did you compile your kernel with the
drivers as modules?

Check card=56, that seems another version of the 98FM card.

There's also a v4l2 patch, which was necessary for the saa7130 card I'm
now using.

And finally, did you configure for a size of 48x32? Isn't that too
small? I believe default is 320x240...
