I noticed that when I set up the TV card that Mandrake was apparently detecting the address incorrectly. I was getting an error message of "overlay mode is not working because BTTV initialized with the wrong base address. To load BTTV use the following command: insmod bttv vidmem=0xf80"
Unfortunately that was an invalid syntax, but I was able to finally get it working by doing some rmmod, insmod and modprobe, cat /proc/pic for information and I finally got it working. Unfortunately I didn't document enough, because I honestly didn't think I was going to be able to get it working but all of a sudden it started working. The xawtv application works flawlessly once the hardware detection was straightened out. fwiiw
