Coz I'm a cheapskate and bought some random board off ebay which isn't
one of the numerous boards recognised by video4linux/bttv. I get blue
screens on all channels. The windows s/w crashes XP SP2, so I haven't
been able to snoop the GPIO settings from the windows driver :-(

The HK based ebayer I bought it off had his ebay account pulled for
reasons unknown, just after I'd received it.

Ho hum.
