I've been trying very hard to get two PVR 350's in one box to run with 
ivtv-0.2rc3b (PVR 250's are just not available in this part of Europe). 
The first one is working like a charm, but the second card is just not 
tuning (there is a stream, but it is black or static).Tveeprom reported:

tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 48134, rev = J347, serial# = 2756226
tveeprom: tuner = LG TP18PSB01D (idx = 47, type = 28)
tveeprom: tuner fmt = PAL(B/G) (eeprom = 0x04, v4l2 = 0x00000007)
tveeprom: audio_processor = CS5331 (type = 9)
i2c attach [client=tveeprom[0],ok]
(...)
ivtv: i2c attach [client=MSP3418W-B3,ok]
tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 48139, rev = K257, serial# = 7597097
tveeprom: tuner = Philips FM1216 ME MK3 (idx = 57, type = 38)
tveeprom: tuner fmt = PAL(D/K) (eeprom = 0x74, v4l2 = 0x00400e17)
audio_processor = CS5331 (type = 9)
ivtv: i2c attach [client=tveeprom[1],ok]

According to Chris's site 
(http://205.209.168.201/~ckennedy/ivtv/new_tuners/) I do not need the 
tuner update. But here is something interesting: tveeprom reports that 
the second is a PAL(D/K), whereas I'm in PAL-G land, might that be the 
problem? Or is it just something I did wrong? Please help.

The rest of my config:
 From modules.conf.local:

alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-81-1 ivtv
options ivtv ivtv_debug=1 ivtv_std=2 tuner=28,38
#options tuner debug=0 type=1
#options saa7127 enable_output=1 output_select=0 pal=1
options msp3400 once=0 simpler=1 simple=1
#options saa7115 debug=0
add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115 saa7127 tuner
add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c ivtv-fb


When running the second card /var/log/messages logs:
