Description of problem:
I get no picture with xawtv, only snow.
After 10 minutes trying to find a tv-channel the pc-hangs.
Nothing works. I have to do a cold-reset.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xawtv-3.81-6.i386.rpm

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.start xawtv in a terminal in Xwindows
2.try to find a channel using right and left button.
3.after a while the screen freeses and nothing works anymore.
    

Actual Results:  The PC hangs. Frosen Screen, Frosen mouse, Keybord does not 
respond. CTRL-ALT-DEL will not work. Changing terminal with ALT-CTRL-TAB-Fx 
will not work.

Expected Results:  1. Working = Finding a tv-channel on screen.
2. Just one process that has to be killed when in error.

Additional info:

On http://bytesex.org/v4l/build.html i read that the RH9 kernel does not work 
correctly with V4l2-drivers. This is where the program xawtv and other programs 
like that use, i think.

I also find a lot of webpages where are problems with redhat and v4l2 drivers 
or tvcards.

So i ask myself whats true about the above webpage. And in the case it is, than 
there has to be done something about it.
It should work....
I do have a standard redhat 9.0 linux installation on my pc.
