Hi,
I had similar problems with ivtv when the 0.4.1 and 0.5.0 branch appeared.
The problem was in the hotplug scripts.

This is important. If you have '/sbin/udevsend' here than
you need something like this in the /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules
file:
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# be backward compatible for a while with the /etc/dev.d and
/etc/hotplug.d/ systems
# run /etc/hotplug.d/ stuff only if we came from a hotplug event, not
for udevstart
ENV{UDEVD_EVENT}=="1", RUN+="/sbin/udev_run_hotplugd"

Trace the firmware.agent line-by-line !
( example with 'echo $SYSFS >> /tmp/logfile' )
My problem was with the line:
"SYSFS=$(sed -n 's/^.* \([^ ]*\) sysfs .*$/\1/p' /proc/mounts)"
The sed gave to matched lines, and after it the SYSFS variable was bad,
and the whole script is failed. This why the kernel thinks that there is
firmware load timeout.
I hope this helps!
