Any chance of getting a newer version of the bttv driver into the
FC3 kernel updates? I had to patch it to make it stop growing
slab-256 without bounds. (It leaks so much that if you grab a single
frame every few seconds, slab-256 will be > 800M within three days.)
This patch fixes the version of bttv that comes with 2.6.9-1.681_FC3;
the latest bttv source is slightly different but has a similar fix.
