[mythtv-users] Multiple tuner cards with myth

At one time, I was successfully able to test my PVR-250 using excellent
Jarod's guide.  Then, I bought a PVR-500, pulled out the PVR-250, updated
the ivtv driver (0.4.0, I think), but then the tests just would not work
anymore.  All I could get was static from one of the tuners.  Stupidly, I
assumed it was a hardware problem with the PVR-500, exchanged the PVR-500
for another PVR-250, installed both 250s, and I still had the same problem
with the tests.  Finally, gave up trying to test the cards and I just fired
up mythtv and everything worked fine.  I wasted a ton of time and energy
because the tests didn't work, probably because of the ivtv driver changes,
and I assumed it was the hardware because no amount of sonfiguration
tweaking would make the tests work.

Ditch the tests, fire up mythtv and see what happens.
