0.8.34 is known buggy. 0.8.44 should do well. 0.8.45 too in theory,
but there are a number of mm changes which didn't got that much testing
so far ...

Hmm, ok.

Hmm, maybe the error path in btaudio is buggy, althrougth I can't see
any obvious on a first quick check of the code ...

Can you try that with rmmoding bttv+video-buf and btaudio separately?
I'd like to know which of the two causes the oops.
