Lonnie,
You are a genius and a saint. :) I wasn't sure that I was ever going to
get this working.
Anyway, for the record, what I did exactly was:
cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/video/
mv tuner.ko tuner.ko.bak
mv tveeprom.ko tveeprom.ko.bak
mv msp3400.ko msp3400.ko.bak
mv tda9887.ko tda9887.ko.bak
cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates/drivers/media/video
cp tuner-ivtv.ko tuner.ko
cp tveeprom-ivtv.ko tveeprom.ko
modprobe -r ivtv
depmod -a
modprobe ivtv
After this, everything was working. This was on Fedora Core 3, tho I
suspect it would work the same, or at least similarly on FC4, and maybe on
other distros?
Thanks again to everyone who helped me!
Thanks,
Peter Darley

The /lib/modules/<kernel name> is where kernel modules live. .ko files
and .ko.gz files are loadable kernel modules. In the dir with the ivtv
files, take note of the file names. search under that
entire /lib/modules/<kernel name> directory for files with the same name
(like tveeprom). Those are the ones to rename to prevent a clash. Once
done, run "depmod -a" (without quotes) to update the module dependency
list. Then when it tries to load the tuner and such, it will get the
one from the ivtv build.
