I've now just realised that I was using the wrong driver version (the shame).
So, I've deleted all modules and files and builded the modules again.
Now when I do modprobe ivtv I get this message:
FATAL: Error inserting ivtv
(/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2869.fc6/kernel/drivers/media/video/ivtv/ivtv.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
dmesg then give's me this:

I think this has some thing to do with v4l. But I don't know what.
Some more output:
