Do I not need eeprom at all? I think I heard something to the effect that it will be loaded by ivtv automatically, so perhaps if ivtv is loaded after tveeprom, then the ordering will be fine.
I'll check it out when I get home. Thanks.

Actually, it looks like you may have a new-enough version of ivtv, and you loaded the eeprom module before tveeprom. see this error from your post:
Jan 18 20:22:18 localhost kernel: ivtv: Error -19 reading Hauppauge eeprom. Jan 18 20:22:18 localhost kernel: ivtv: Possible causes: the tveeprom module was not loaded, or Jan 18 20:22:18 localhost kernel: ivtv: the eeprom kernel module was loaded before the tveeprom module.
if you do a 'lsmod' and it shows eeprom is loaded, type 'rmmod eeprom'
and try reloading ivtv 'rmmod ivtv;modprobe ivtv'

I was going along with the Fedora Myth(TV)ology HowTo and hit a wall at the "test the capture card" step. That being, I can't seem to capture anything but static. Looks exactly like the static on a TV with no cable hooked in (assuming it's not a newer TV that just shows a blue screen). I actually have two 350s in there and both do the same thing. Although the static doesn't look exactly the same. Hard to explain how static is different. Anyhow, I checked the cable in my VCR and it's definitely not that. I believe I have the correct input selected on both cards. I fiddled with the /usr/lib/ivtv/ptune-ui script to change channels. No effect.
I installed ivtv via: apt-get install ivtv-firmware apt-get install ivtv-kmdl-$KVER apt-get install ivtv $KVER on my system is 2.6.10-1.741_FC3
I then edited /etc/modprobe.conf to include: # ivtv modules setup alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
(The instructions indicated this was for 350 users NOT using the TV out - one thing at a time)
Then I did: /sbin/depmod -a /sbin/modprobe ivtv No errors to be seen.
But when I tried to capture video (I tried both cards), static. I ran /sbin/lspci -v and it seemed to produce reasonable output: 00:08.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC15 MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.

And now the log stuff, which does show some disturbing things:
