No it does not. I get the same problem where the card is not showing a
picture but it is detected. However it still says its suppose to use
the saa7134 driver. I load the bttv driver with the options in
modprobe.conf and yet xawtv -hwscan still returned

/dev/video0: OK                         [ -device /dev/video0 ]
    type : v4l2
    name : UNKNOWN/GENERIC
    flags: overlay capture tuner

Which will not work. Should I try the saa7134 driver with the same options?
