These lines:

alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv
alias tuner tuner-ivtv
alias msp3400 msp3400-ivtv

are in that guide because that guide is for the 0.2 version of ivtv.
Since you're using 0.3, you need to get rid of these.

The /etc/modprob.conf details are:

alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv
alias tuner tuner-ivtv

Did you install from source, or from ATrpms?  If you installed from
source, get rid of those last three

I changed the /etc/modprob.conf to read  (I'm displaying the full modprobe.conf file this time, I don't know if it matters, but just in case):

alias eth0 via-rhine
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-via82xx index=0
remove snd-via82xx { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-via82xx
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd

# ivtv (PVR-150)
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv

Then I ran

/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/modprobe ivtv

But, after running

# /usr/lib/ivtv/ptune-ui.pl &
# mplayer -vo xv /dev/video0

I still got the same black static and no sound.

No tveeprom means that we can't detect tuner type, which I guess doesn't matter because we can't load the tuner module anyway.  Looks like your aliases aren't working properly.  Does `modprobe tuner` and `modprobe tveeprom` work?  If it does, then load them before you modprobe ivtv and you'll be golden (everything else looks fine).  It might be simpler to just remove your aliases altogether and just remove the conflicting modules.

I did the above, and then ran

sudo /sbin/modprobe tuner
sudo /sbin/modprobe tveeprom

But still only black static and no audio.

Thanks for the help!
