Alright I am having this same exact issue and everytime I load the
ivtv-fb module I lose my entire console and I get the same picture
above.  I have tried the settings that Patrick wrote and modified them
for NTSC but, it doesn't matter.  Same exact outcome.  I am using the
3.6f ivtv package.  My /var/log/messages output looks identical to
Brian's file.  I have tried adding the line listed below to my
lilo.conf file but, it once again made no change. Any other
suggestions?


append="apm=power-off nomce video=vc:64-64"
