Hi,

and as always on RH rename the directory /dev/video in /dev/nonsens or
something else and make sure you have a symbolic link /dev/video
pointing to /dev/video0.
(this also applies to /dev/dsp radio vbi ...) Unplug the device or even
reload your usbcore module or reboot. "Usbview" is fine to see the
device registered.
