    Great. Even though modprobe -n -v cx8800 reports the right thing:

    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/kernel/drivers/media/video/videodev.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/updates/btcx-risc.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/updates/v4l2-common.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/updates/v4l1-compat.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/kernel/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/updates/video-buf.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/updates/cx88xx.ko
    insmod /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435/updates/cx8800.ko

    (modutils-2.4.26-16 FC2 stock package)

    I'm still borked. Thanks Axel - I'll snag the update.
