^^^^^^^^  This is the problem.  It is the same bug as here:

http://spinics.net/lists/vfl/msg20720.html

This is due to a problem created by the new tda8290/8275a code.

Until Hartmut or Mauro fix this, I suggest that you should download the 
last video4linux snapshot from

http://www.linuxtv.org/download/video4linux/video4linux-20051011.tar.gz

Follow all the same directions in the Wiki-Howto, except do:

scripts/merge-trees.sh

instead of "make merge-trees".

Dont worry about this... cx88-alsa install has been disabled because it 
doesnt work yet.

No.

It loads up automatically for me and I never did anything special... 
I've heard you can do it by using /etc/modprobe.conf ... or was is 
/etc/modprobe.conf ... i forget.  See the appropriate man pages.

'make clean' is enough.  'make distclean' is needed if you're going to 
compile against a different kernel.

Good Luck,
