What does "dmesg|grep bttv" say?
   

Nothing. 
 

hmmm ... it seems, your card is not recognized/missing !

Warning: Cannot convert string"-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*"

Segmentation  Fault
I made run xawtv for my friend (can't check it now), but remember
I had to edit xawtv config file somewhere in /etc/X11/ directory
and replace the words  "ledfixed" with "fixed", because  "ledfixed"
font was'nt available

I have none of those. 
 

yes, because you compiled it to the kernel ... I prefer modules

for Pinacle Studio card it needs these modules:

tuner                  11040   1 (autoclean)
tvaudio                14300   0 (autoclean) (unused)
bttv                   79200   1
i2c-algo-bit            8456   1 [bttv]
i2c-core               15944   0 [tuner tvaudio bttv i2c-algo-bit]
btaudio                11052   0
soundcore               4196   5 [i810_audio bttv btaudio]

Have you changed the access rights of /dev/v4l/* ?
   

No. 
 

you can try to run it as root, to elimine/identify premissions problems
