When I modprobe I get:

I built the kernel sources from the LE2005 distribution kernel-sources rpm. I
have not installed the kernel, just done a make.
I think this must be the problem. How do I get rid of the "custom" when I
bulld the ivtv modules?
I believe the ivtv sources get the "custom" from the kernel source
Makefile (i.e. /usr/src/<your_src>/Makefile). I think the string is in
a variable called EXTRAVERSION or something like that. However, I think
it might be cleaner if you just installed that kernel. The "custom"
string is actually there so that you can build your own kernel and
install it and it won't override the one installed from the RPM. Unless
mandrake does things funny, it should add a new entry to your grub with
the "custom" kernel (or you may have to do that part yourself, but the
files that are installed from that source tree shouldn't overwrite files
from the RPM install).
Note that if you install the new kernel, you should probably reinstall
the ivtv modules after you reboot witih the new kernel, because the
modules will exist in /lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdkcustom.
That being said, I don't know your setup, so may know better if you
should use the custom kernel or not. :)
