Here is something else with bttv, back in my 7.3 version of suse, the bttv module was loaded and unloaded by the application, like xawtv. Now with 8.1, the bttv module gets loaded whenever X starts, and stays loaded. I guess the newer version of X loads it automatically, even if I don't use an app that needs it.
Yes, this was how I first discovered the problem -- the sound to my TV card would activate upon boot, even if I had not run kwintv or xawtv yet. How can I prevent bttv from loading upon boot? And, even better, how I can force kwintv or xawtv to unload the module when I quit the program? Many thanks again to all for the comments and help.
