Ok, but this morning I noticed another potential problem, one that
I've pinged Jack K., (the author of the pcHDTV-1.6 driver kit, some
of whose modules overwrite kernel modules by the same names,) about
just a few minutes ago.

I'm getting the usual nvidia generated 'tainted kernel' messages in my
log when the modules are loaded:

Mar 4 04:17:46 coyote kernel: bttv: no version for "struct_module"
found: kernel tainted.
Mar 4 04:17:46 coyote kernel: bttv: No versions for exported symbols.
Tainting kernel.
Mar 4 04:17:46 coyote kernel: bttv: driver version 0.9.15 loaded
Mar 4 04:17:46 coyote kernel: bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520
pages) each for capture

Since we do have the srcs for this one, how can a relative dummy like
me fix this? Or should I wait for Jack K.'s answer... Grepping
kernel srcs for a 'struct_module' seems to come up empty for 2.6.11.
