MythTv Lockup on Video
I have installed the CVS version of MythTv on a RH9 system with a
WinTV-pvr250 capture card. All seems to be well until I try to "Watch TV",
where the system locks up displaying a screen with thin vertical green
lines. The system is then completely locked up, requiring a push of the big
red button to recover.

I don't know if it means anything, but "dmesg" does show some "unknown
ioctl" messages...
