Something odd is happening then - there should be a fair number of other 
modules that got brought in with cx8800, like tuner_xc2028, tuner, 
v4l2_common, videodev, and others.

Can you copy&paste dmesg and lsmod outputs as they look after a fresh reboot 
and having loaded the modules?

I also have a feeling I'm wrong about cx88-alsa not being needed...

V4l team:  Is or is not cx88-alsa still part of the usual modules that must be 
loaded (either manually or automatically)?  If it is, did something merely 
break recently that made it disappear from the output of the build?

/me is confused.
