Ok, I tried # /usr/bin/ivtvctl -p x with x from 0-9 and get an input
only on 4, which seems correct as I'm using a composite input.

The box my PVR-350 came in says it's a 993. I think the version of
ivtv I'm using is version 0.2.0 (rc3b) from the at-testing rpms.

Ive also attached my modprobe.conf and the ivtv init I get.
