Tyler,
I was mucking with the PCI latency timings for my ethernet / HD
controller / audio card and started getting a lot of those overflows
under heavy load (on a single Celeron 533). Once I returned to the
system's default timings, they went away.

Here's some obscure ideas that come to mind.

Hard drive: fragmented beyond all belief, or it's got bad blocks -

Maybe the IVTV card is overheating?
Henk,
Have you configured your kernel to build all of the Video4Linux
modules? See the Kernel Configuration Specifics section in the howto:
http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Howto
And don't forget the `depmod -a` once you've built and installed them...

It is my understanding that ivtv 0.4.2 does not load the firmware
properly on the PPC architecture. Can anyone with a PPC architecture

Thanks for testing my patches! You only should have been able to
apply one patch or the other, not both... I would start out by trying
the first patch, see if it works, then redownload the source and
apply the second patch and try it.
As far as the firmware goes, make sure you have
Kernel inclusion is the goal.
The individual major releases (0.4, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8) are for specific
kernel versions because more parts of ivtv have been merged into the
kernel in each release.

Have you tried setting the sysctl value:
vm.min_free_kbytes=16384
Or higher? Even though you have a ton of ram, for some reason when
the ivtv module requests memory, the kernel refuses to swap out pages
to make room for it. Even if your ram is just full of disk cache!
