I have not tracked down the reason or cure, but I, too, loose my two
4-port video cards after a re-boot.  The problem is that the bttv module
does not load.

I simply open a root console, and "modprobe bttv".  Both cards then
return to service...without having to go into YAST for anything.

(This problem did not show up until an online update a few weeks
ago...my original install of 10.3 was fine in this regard.

HTH,

Tom in NM
