Dylan - It sounds like the issue could be a marginal power supply. I'm not fully familiar with the GeForce 6200 but have done a lot of testing with the pcHDTV family of cards and various nvidia cards. Signal lock is very sensitive to the voltage stability of the PCI bus and your GeForce 6200 may be loading the system enough to drop the voltage causing signal lock problems. What is the rating of your power supply? There is no direct interaction between the video drivers and the v4l-dvb drivers in terms of "compatibility" so the issue is more external. If you want to continue this discussion off list, I can give you some suggestions on how to isolate the issue. Sorry for the delayed response here.
