Notes:

When dvt-qtgui is started from the gnome-terminal the device 
selection dialog is shown, after I selectand confirm the video device  
I want to use the dialog disappairs and ther are no new windows shown
even if the program is still running.
At this point these are the messages shown in the in the gnome-terminal 
window:

# Start of gnome-terminal window messages

~$ dvr-qtgui

*** WARNING *** : the driver doesn't provide a correct size for memory 
mapping. DVR tries to correct this error, but some strange things may 
happend, you are warned.
Can't map memory for capture : Invalid argument

# End of gnome-terminal window messages

Then nothing happens, dvr-qtgui is still running but there is no window 
for it.

The dvr-qtgui complains about driver but other programs (xawtv, tvtime) 
have no problem with it.

The video device is named by the maifacturer "Pinnacle PCTV Stereo" 
and is reported by lspci as:

01:08.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7134/SAA7135HL 
Video Broadcast Decoder (rev 01)
