I read a post relating to something similar with the VIA chipset. I suppose the "bttv0: irq:
SCERR risc_count=1764e020" errors isn't the problem for why mine isn't working but just another normal error. Any idea on how to put the bttv module into a debug mode?

bogomips kraxel ~# modinfo bttv | grep debug

parm:        bttv_debug int, description "debug messages, default is 0 (no)"
parm:        irq_debug int, description "irq handler debug messages, default is 0 (no)"

That likely doesn't help you througth. SCERR is a syncronisation error of the DMA engine. Most likely the bt878 chip has problems to do PCI-PCI transfers to the onboard video chipset for some reason.
