I'm not sure whether or not I need to include the alias stuff in modprobe. If I do, I get the errors. If I don't, the errors go away, but I'm not sure if I am loading the right modules....

well, we do recommend that you use the ivtv versions. But you have
some problems below.

Why is cx88xx loading? You have another capture card in there
somewhere? And if you do, this is a conflict where the kernel cx88xx
module will not use the ivtv tveeprom. So you'll have to use the
kernel version of tveeprom.
I don't have anything installed except the PVR-500MCE. I have no idea why cx88xx is loading. The machine has the pvr-500 and an nvidia video card. That's it.

These aliases are from the atrpms version of the modules. if you
look in /lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1378_FC3/ivtv, you'll probably see
that there is a tveeprom-ivtv.ko in there instead of the normal
tveeprom.ko.

As a result, this means nothing. Yes, this is the modinfo for
tveeprom, but you're actually loading tveeprom-ivtv.
So, this really boils down to a couple of things:
1. You're loading cx88xx for some reason or another and it doesn't
like the ivtv version of tveeprom. If you need cx88xx for something,
then you'll need the kernel version of tveeprom to get it working.
2. The naming scheme of atrpms' ivtv modules is confusing you and/or
your kernel.
Just saw your newest email. You can use the kernel versions of
tveeprom and tuner, but you must use the ivtv version of msp3400.
I'm not sure whether or not I need to include the alias stuff in modprobe. If I do, I get the errors. If I don't, the errors go away, but I'm not sure if I am loading the right modules....
