Mike,

  Okay, thanks.  I deleted the options when I load the modules and now I see:

ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x44 not found!

as well as the "Decoder firmware dead!" messages I saw earlier.

  I'll install a newer kernel so I can use the tuner patch, but in the meantime 
I should be able to use composite, right?

                                                Jim
