I do have a Nebula card, and it's working as I type!  ;)

Yep.  I've done all this with kernel 2.4.20 and bttv 0.9.4 (with the 
Nebula
and I2C patches from Florian).  It works, but I get a lot of errors on 
my
console and /var/log/messages

  bt878(0): irq FDSR risc_pc=16d0d008

which, eventually, brings my box to a halt - almost as if it's too busy
logging them, to be able to give me a shell prompt.  :(
