This is sort of maddening...
I have gone back to the 0.2.0-rc3j and reset my /etc/modules.d/ivtv to be as
follows (using defaults):

alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c

After reinstalling everything I did the following (from
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Setup_MythTV):
modprobe ivtv
ivtvctl -u 0x3000
ivtvctl -p 4
ivtvctl -f width=720,height=480
ivtvctl -v input=3,output=1
cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg


I started X and played the test.mpg - and it showed real video of C-SPAN..
not quite my cup of tea, but it worked..
however, when I started Myth, any time I tried to tune to a different
channel, nothing changed. It was as if C-SPAN was on every channel.

Next, I powered down my box, started it back up, and once I logged in I ran
the same commands as above starting with the 'modprobe ivtv' (its not
autoloading the module yet).

This time, the video was all snow and myth showed nothing but snow as well.

below is my current dmesg when I load the driver, but when using the tuner I
get the following out of dmesg (not sure if this is an error or not). Anyone
have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Many thanks in advance for your help.

The ivtv_std=2 sets the video standard to PAL, but according to your dmesg
you have a NTSC tuner. Try setting ivtv_std=1 or remove it completely and
see if that helps.
