Grab the latest development driver from 
Driver 0.8.14
http://www.strusel007.de/linux/bttv

I'm using it under 2.4.3 with no problems. Have a Flyvideo98 card and it
works a treat, but I have to use some insmod options to get it to go.
Not on that machine at the moment.

always compile i2c bttv and tuner support as modules, to allow easy testing.

Hope this helps. The new driver is pretty alpha, but I have not crashed it yet
