I have a bt848 card, it works well in woody with
self-compiled 2.4 kernel:
modprobe bttv card=21
however it does not work in sarge's stock 2.4 kernel.
The video is OK, but there's no sound though
percentage of volume can be changed in xawtv.

I have a bttv card, also. It was one tricky issue to figure, after all
my sarge set up correctly. Here, it seems the snd-bt87x module from
/lib/modules/2.6.8-3-k7/kernel/sound/pci/ in some way conflicts with the
sound module for my ac97 onboard sound. After booting, my mixer showed
the snd-bt87x module, instead of the correct via823xx. I tried lots of
different ways to solve the issue, but what really did the trick was to
rename the snd-bt87x module to snd-bt87x.bak (with the corresponding
error lines in dmesg complaining no snd-bt87x found..).
From what I could understand reading over the net, the bttv used to
have its own sound module, but nowadays it doens't need it anymore, the
tv card can do alsa.
My modprobe line is
modprobe bttv card=37 tuner=2 radio=1
the card is a pixelview play tv pro.
