I've also got a bttv card, whose init seems to be done quite early in 
the bootup, and that requires I have i2c-dev in the kernel.  So I 
might as well put it all in, the current situation.  All in, or all 
out, it doesn't work.  A run of sensors right now, returns this:

Does this give a clue I'm too clueless to see?
