xawtv behaving badly, vertical bars distoring image

[Gregory Gulik]

I tried all the -no* options listed in the man page with no change.

I noticed in the man page there is an "fbtv" program that does basically 
the same thing directly to the frame buffer.  I tried running it in VC1 
outside of X and I get the error:

Can't open: /dev/fb0: No such device

The video card in question is an ATI Rage 128 Pro Ultra:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 Pro 
Ultra TF
