[mythtv-users] DViCO Fusion HDTV 5 Gold NTSC setup

I've got the subject card working as an HD (ATSC) receiver, but can't 
figure out how to get it to receiver NTSC channels.  I defined a V4L 
capture card in the 'Capture cards' section of mythtv-setup.  It then 
shows up as a device of /dev/v4l/video0.  But when I go to scan those 
channels, nothing shows up.  And I know that there's several VHF and UHF 
channels on standard NTSC broadcast.  I also tried setting the 'TV 
format: in the Global Backend setup to NTSC (even though that didn't 
make a lot of sense, and logically wouldn't be the right thing to do for 
the ATSC 'part' of the card)....

Has anyone gotten this to work?

On a 'plus' note, I did manage (I think) to get both this card and a 
HD5000 card to both work at the same time (both in ATSC mode).  I'm 
running gentoo and had to emerge the 2.6.15-gentoo kernel.  But after 
configuration, both cards worked...

Its possible that I didn't follow the Fusion Gold instructions correctly 
and don't have the correct module compiled to actually pick up NTSC...  
Which device driver would that be?  Here's my lsmod output:
