Well I checked fstab and nothing new is inserted so I tried modprobe bttv. 
The output is below - It does look like its looking for v4l2 however i dont 
know what version my kernel has in it. There is only one option for it.

# modprobe bttv
FATAL: Error inserting bttv 
(/lib/modules/2.6.12.5/kernel/drivers/media/video/bttv.ko): Unknown symbol 
in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
