There are a set of patches for 1.4.1 which work well.  Check the changes
history (I can't remember the URL off hand).  They work very well for me
on my 1.4.1 box.  I have tried two models of the Hauppauge WinTV, and
both work excellently.  I believe Berndt Wolf (who created the
patches) has been working on a driver which correctly utilizes
the mach independant structure (the patches provided will work for only
i386 IIRC).

Hope this helps.
