I did try this.  In fact, just about every combination that could be  
imagined from the options on that screen.  All the audio buffer  
option did was make the stutter-stop duration a half second longer.

This seems to get toward the heart of the matter.  I thought I  
reloaded them, however a lsmod turns up neither tuner or tveeprom.   
I'm still a little shaky with how modules install and work so forgive  
me if I'm off base here.  When I attempt "modprobe tveeprom" I get  
this error...
    FATAL: Module tveeprom_ivtv not found.
however this is where it lives:  (the double FC4-myth comes from the  
fact that it was my first kernel build and I accidently named the  
kernel twice)
     /lib/modules/2.6.13-FC4-myth-FC4-myth/ivtv/tveeprom.ko
     /lib/modules/2.6.13-FC4-myth-FC4-myth/kernel/drivers/media/video/ 
tveeprom.ko_backup  <----- this is the one I changed.

and "modprobe tuner" results in...
    FATAL: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.13-FC4-myth-FC4-myth/ 
kernel/drivers/media/video/tuner.ko': No such file or directory
and here is where they live...
     /lib/modules/2.6.13-FC4-myth-FC4-myth/ivtv/tuner.ko
     /lib/modules/2.6.13-FC4-myth-FC4-myth/kernel/drivers/media/video/ 
tuner.ko_backup

So, I'm sure I must be installing/removing the modules incorrectly.   
How exactly should I be doing this?

And wouldn't this only affect the pvr350?  I didn't think the ivtv  
stuff was used for the HD5000.  I'm much more concerned about getting  
that one to work.
