Hi,

I run in to the same problem with 2.6.10rc1 in case I do not load dvd_bt8xx before mt352

Also take care that the firmware 'sc_main.mc' (find on windows driver cd) is placed in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/ 

And at least make sure that /dev/dvb/adapter0-3 is existing. If not you can use the MAKEDEV-DVB.sh script to create it.
http://linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/dvb-kernel/MAKEDEV-DVB.sh

modprobe bttv
modprobe bt878
modprobe dvb_core
modprobe dvb_bt8xx   <--- Must Load before mt352!!!
modprobe mt352

But I run in to a other situation: After a while capturing , I will get in kern.log (syslog):
Nov  4 23:22:40 localhost kernel: bt878(0): irq FBUS risc_pc=1eb161b8
Nov  4 23:22:40 localhost kernel: bt878(0): irq FBUS risc_pc=1eb161e8
Nov  4 23:22:40 localhost kernel: bt878(0): irq FBUS risc_pc=1eb16208
Nov  4 23:22:40 localhost kernel: bt878(0): irq FBUS risc_pc=1eb16210
.....
Nov  4 23:22:40 localhost kernel: bt878(0): IRQ lockup, cleared int mask

After this will happend the card will not long work until I reboot.

Anyone an Idea

Cheers Jan
