Gene-

By teletext, I assume you are referring to closed captions. Are you
sure that closed captions EVER worked for you on a cx88-based card?
AFAIK, this feature has not yet been implemented. I am not at home now,
so I cannot try it, however, IIRC, closed captions is implemented in
bttv, and not yet in cx88.

This is a v4l issue, not a dvb issue, however, it is NOT an issue. This
is not a regression, because the feature has not yet been implemented.

Gene, if I am wrong, (this is possible) then please provide the last
kernel version that had this feature correctly implemented. I don't
think that I am wrong, though. Please investigate this and confirm that
this is an actual regression or not.

Cheers,
