Using 0x68 is the very first thing I tried, and, being the wrong one, it
actually locked everything as promised! ;-) Card type 0x71 is quite
certainly correct, according to what I found in bttv-cards.c: the PCI ID
of my card is associated to an identifier called BTTV_TWINHAN_DST, and
card type 0x71 seems the right one for Twinhan + DST clones.

Yep, it's actually i2c_hw. Modinfo tells you nothing about it because
there's no corresponding MODULE_PARM_DESC() in the code, but the option
is actually there and it's used by the driver (I had a look in
bttv-i2c.c).

Thanks for your hints, unfortunately I still had no luck with this card!
