[mythtv-users] Help running X on the PVR-350

Greetings,
One problem down and now onto the rest. I have followed Jarod
Willson's guide, things look good on my monitor. Now I follow the
guide to test the output of my video via the pvr350. I use the
following to get rid of the horizontal lines that appeared when
playing live TV through the card:
/usr/bin/ivtvfbctl /dev/fb1 -alpha -on -globalalpha -nolocalalpha
(1) The minor annoynace I have is that I have sound and a color image,
but there is a bit of snow on the screen.
(2) Following Jarod's guide for "Running X on the PVR-350's TV-Out,"
once I get everything set up and running. My results when I look at it
on the TV is 'hundreds of mini horizontal lines on the screen.' Which
makes it pretty much useless, thank God for SSH.
I searched mythtv e-mails and Google'd and tried a few things I found,
I have tried several things over the last several nights, various
suggestions from PVR blogs, mailings but nothing seems to fix either
of these problems. Any help would be appreciated. I have included
various command and log outputs below, I also noticed some bttv
warnings in the dmesg.
