Thanks!  That is at least some encouragement.

2.4.18 - built with SMP support.  From what I can tell, I need to patch this
kernel for bttv, but when I use the patch provided here:

http://bytesex.org/bttv/

the kernel fails to build.  I'm not seeing the bttv, tuner, or videodev items
load at boottime.  I do see i2c items getting pulled in... 

Next week when I get more time, I'm going to completely separate these issues 
and make at least one work.

Thanks for all your help.
