   Are you refering to Ralph's bttv driver in this case?  There are at least 3
versions of the bttv driver that exist:  Ralph's 5.0.19, Alan Cox's version that 
ships with the latest 2.1 kernels, and the version that ships with Gerd
Knorr's xawtv.

	I'm running 2.1.127 pulled from vger, and the bttv driver that comes with it
looks like it has been updated with the scheduling changes.  I can't say for
certain whether it works, since my WinTV pci card doesn't have a msp3400 on
it, but I have no problems using bttv with the alsa drivers.
