I picked up a Hauppauge WinTV-USB very cheaply at a thrift store a while
back ($5), verified that it worked on a windows box, and now i've decided
to try and use it on my notebook. 

        It doesn't work. When i try motv -hwscan with the motv binary from
debian/woody, i get this: 

This is motv-3.70, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.17)
Warning: Actions not found: Remote
Warning: Actions not found: Remote
Segmentation fault

        So I built xawtv 3.72, and with that i get this: 

This is xawtv-3.72, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.17)
WARNING: no plugins found [/usr/local/lib/xawtv]
looking for available devices
port 46-46
    type : Xvideo, image scaler
    name : ATI mach64 Video Overlay

/dev/video0: initialization failed

        So, well, I'm stuck. It doesn't work. What can i say. I'd appriciate any
input. 

        I'm using debian/woody on a Thinkpad X21 - PIII-700, ATi Rage Mobility-M.
kernel is 2.4.17 built from kernel.org sources. I've installed the ati.2
xserver (binaries), so my display supports XVideo. At least, xvinfo has a
lot of positive things to say about my display, and mplayer is definately
able to use the BES. I have instructed X to load the v4l module, I haven't
independently verified that it's being loaded. 

        I've followed the instructions included with the
usbvision-0.3.1-test2-2.4.6 tarball at http://www.emuit.com/webcam.html.
Everything built ok. 

        When i load the module, I get the warning about tainting the kernel, but
no other errors. dmesg says this:

        When i load tuner.o, things don't look so pretty:
