Yes, xawtv works with the -noxv option.  I've been
running this box exclusively for MythTV for about 6
months and have upgraded and tweaked things, but I've
never had a problem until I went to CVS.  I was
running 0.17 before, but it was the ebuild from
Gentoo.  I've tried everything I can think of that
would nail down that it's just a TV Wonder VE thing,
but I keep coming back to the conclusion that
something changed between the 0.17 Gentoo ebuild and
yesterday's CVS release that fixed the daylight
savings problem and it's causing a problem with my
card.
