This may be grasping at straws bit I was having similar problems and
here's what worked for me.  When I rebuilt my initial ramdisk (I'm
using FC3, built following Jarod's guide) the mkinitrd-ivtv that I
created using Jarod's guide found and used older firmware in
/lib/modules -- although I didn't realize it at the time.

In trying to troubleshoot I deleted all older firmware off my system
(including the files in /lib/modules) and later, out of desparation,
tried to rebuild my initrd again -- and it failed:
cp: cannot stat `/lib/modules/ivtv-fw*.bin': No such file or directory

So I rebuilt a "vanilla" ramdisk using:
/sbin/mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd-`uname -r`.img `uname -r`

Things started working after a cold reboot.

Don't know if this will help, but it worked for me so I thought I'd
pass it along.  Good luck!
