I have a very similar problems to Larry's.  I have a PVR-350 which works
pretty well.  I recently added a PVR-150, which I have not been able to
get to work (even by itself).  I tried Jarod's modprobe settings, but
nothing seemed to change.

The PVR-150 seems to be initialized just fine by ivtv (see attached), but
it produces no output on /dev/video1.  The only anomaly that I have
noticed is in the lspci output, it reports "unknown device" as follows
(May be normal for PVR-150??):

04:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC15
MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV PVR-350
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
        Memory at d8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
        Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2

04:01.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16
(CX23416)MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 8003
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 10
        Memory at d4000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
        Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2


Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks,
  Adrian

ps  This is my first post, but I have been lurking for months.  Thanks to
all for getting me this far.

this with 0.2.0 rc3i and 0.3.2u.  The 150 is located at PCI:1:9:0 and
the 350 is located at PCI:1:8:0.  Ivtv seems to be detecting the 150
fine, without errors but video1 is giving me nothing, not even static,
while video0 (the 350) works fine.  Here's my modules.conf snippet
