Miephos:

You don't strictly need to use the tveeprom from the snapshot.  I only 
included it (and the others) to provide alternate choices in case people 
have trouble with the kernel-resident versions.  In your case you are 
having trouble with snapshot-provided version, so just abandon that.  In 
fact, the only module not in V4L (before 2.6.15) is saa7115.ko, and if 
you're running 2.6.15 then you can completely abandon all the modules in 
the ivtv subdirectory.

I had actually separated the ivtv-provided modules into their own 
directory to emphasize the loose relationship here, and in preparation to 
eventually eliminating them completely (hopefully).
