Jarod, any luck (or even time to try) running the 250 alongside the
500?  I'm still waiting for my 500 to ship so I'm not able to do any
testing yet.  Also, as an aside, I downloaded the latest ivtv-0.3
driver and am not able to compile it on my system running FC1 on
2.4.22-1.2199.nptl_52.rhfc1.at kernel from atrpms.  I know I need to
pose this question on the ivtv list, but I thought someone might know
offhand why that driver wouldn't compile.  I'm betting there's
something (module, patch, etc) that's not included in that kernel that
I need.

I know I need to upgrade my FC1 box to FC3, but I've been putting that
off until I absolutely have to.  Of course, if I need FC3 to install
the latest ivtv drivers then I guess it's time to do that.
