That's good news.  Did you have to roll a 2.3.x kernel?  Oh, and
your chipset, was it a BT8x8 variety?  

The funny thing about this card is that the WinTV modules says
NTSC 38101 RevB410, copyright 1998, but the video chip doesn't
say BT like I thought it would.  It says 

CONEXANT 
Fusion 878A
25878-13
CC0219.3
0010 Korea

Is conexant a Korean ripoff of the Brooktree chipset or
something?
