Thanks Warren.  I forgot there was a modinfo utility.  I found the debug
option by going through the source. (Talk about doing things the hard way!)

On another note...I noticed this thread:
http://ivtvdriver.org/pipermail/ivtv-devel/2008-February/005312.html where
Andy got the 74041 working under FC7 x86_64.  I wonder if this is because of
the 64-bit?  I don't have a 64-bit machine to test this out on.  Anyone have
any ideas or similar experiences?

Thanks,
Ryan
