No messages from dvb-bt8xx that I can find.
After much confused poking and reorganising the deck chairs, I stumbled on
the solution: explicitly modprobe the "bttv" module in my rc.local. So now my
rc.local has:
modprobe bttv card=0x79 i2c_hw=1
modprobe mt352
modprobe dvb-bt8xx
chown -R mythtv /dev/dvb
No idea why I need the explicit modprobe. The bttv module was loading, and the
modprobe.conf listed those options for it. Oh well, it works now and creates:
% tree /dev/dvb
/dev/dvb
`-- adapter0
|-- demux0
|-- dvr0
|-- frontend0
`-- net0
