I just tried that now, but it doesn't seem to work. The system locks up
again, about 1 second after executing cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg on a
cmdline.

I've consulted the manual of my motherboard, it says that only PCI slot
4 is free of any other IRQs. Can this be an issue? cat /proc/interrupts
says the following:

           CPU0       
  0:    8676838          XT-PIC  timer
  2:          0          XT-PIC  cascade
  5:        421          XT-PIC  libata, ehci_hcd:usb1
 10:      42218          XT-PIC  skge, libata, uhci_hcd:usb4,
uhci_hcd:usb5, ivtv0
 11:         82          XT-PIC  uhci_hcd:usb2, uhci_hcd:usb3, ivtv1
 14:      48992          XT-PIC  ide0
 15:       1702          XT-PIC  ide1
NMI:          0 
ERR:          0

I don't know anything about IRQs and so on, but maybe ivtv conflicts
with the USB, ethernet or ATA driver?
