Using stock kernel 2.6.28.10, the older 24xxx model indeed works fine 
with 640.  However, the current v4l-dvb snapshot does NOT work, even for 
24xxx devices.  I verified that the VBI initialization hack is still in 
the driver, however it appears not to be having the desired effect 
anymore in v4l-dvb.

Still chasing more leads....

Oh joy.
