image quality problem with ivtvfb
I'm having problems with image quality with ivtvfb kernel module.

The image looks "grainy" with both X server and recorded video that I
try to play on the S-video tv-out of my PVR-350 card. The entire
screen has a uniform graininess that, if I look closely, looks like it
is moving from bottom to top. I'm using kernel 2.6.26-ARCH i686.

I appreciate any suggestions about what it might be or how I could
troubleshoot further.

Thanks,
Dirk

Here's what I get when I modprobe ivtvfb:
