here's the PVR-350 portion of my /etc/modules.conf:

# This is for WinTV PVR-350 IVTV
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
alias char-major-81     videodev
alias char-major-81-0   ivtv
alias char-major-81-1   bttv
options ivtv debug=1
options tuner type=2
options saa7127 enable_output=1 output_select=0
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115 saa7127 tuner
add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c ivtv-fb
post-install ivtv /usr/sbin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video0 -u 0x3000
post-install ivtv /usr/sbin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video16 -u 0x3000
post-install ivtv /usr/sbin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video32 -u 0x3000
post-install ivtv /usr/sbin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video224 -u 0x3000


Please note that -u 0x3000 is for NTSC.
