Hermann, I tried Dave's patch for 0.2.8 and with the settings modprobe saa7134 card=17 oss=1 I was able to get a distorted signal recording with Audacity. With the latest snapshot (0.2.9), the settings you suggested caused my computer to entirely lock up. Those same settings with 0.2.8 gave me the dsp access wait time out [bit=WRR] error. So this is mixed news.. atleast there is some sort of sound! Any other ideas?
