Yes both video0 and video1 are being created in the dev directory.  Here is
the output from dmesg.

ivtv0: Registered device video0 for encoder MPEG (4 MB)
cx88[0]/0: registered device video1 [v4l2]

listing output:

[root at htpc ~]# ls -als /dev/video*
0 lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root      6 2008-01-28 00:26 /dev/video -> video0
