I tried some manual configuration of the card.
insmod i2c-core
insmod i2c-dev
insmod i2c-algo-bit
insmod i2c-proc
insmod videodev
insmod bttv card=39 tuner=6
The card is detected and tuner as well.
scantv
(all channels say that there was no station)
Finally it gets to t1, t2, t3 and the whole system locks up.
I tried in 2 different computers one laptop with docking station and a desktop system with a soyo sy7vca (via 686 chipset)
