Guh, how did i miss that. It's right there in the readme.
It worked, once. but for some reason the image wasn't scaled. I guess
that's ok, since it was almost more of a slide show than live video. i
think i got about 5fps, maybe less. I realize that USB is extremely
limited, but it was a lot faster in windows. I guess that has something to
do with the compressed video mode that we're not using.
Now it's not initializing again, i'm not sure what's going on.
I unloaded everything, even usb-uhci, and loaded it all again like i did
the time it worked, still no dice. *shrug*.
I'm gonna throw out the debian packages and install my own build, tho.
The debian binary can't even get as far as telling me it failed
initialization.

That's, well, curious, since I'm specifying tuner=2 when i load
usbvision.o, but ok, as long as it's normal.
Thanks for your help, I can't believe i forgot to insmod that driver . .
