I haven't changed any BIOS settings.  All I've done is upgraded some
packages.

Here's my /etc/modprobe.conf.  Is there anything I should remove?
----------------------------
alias eth0 3c59x
alias usb-controller ohci-hcd
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
# ivtv modules setup
alias char-major-81 ivtv
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv

install ivtv /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv; /sbin/modprobe
ivtv-fb
# lirc setup
install lirc_i2c /sbin/modprobe ivtv; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install
lirc_i2c
-----------------------------

Also, the file ivtv.modules doesn't exist on my system.

I found that no matter what I try to play, whether it's a nonexistent
file or device, a zero-length file, or a valid movie file, mplayer
always gives me a segfault.  This happens whether I run it as a regular
user or as root.
