If memory serves, I think I discovered when I had a similar problem that I 
was using the wrong lirc.conf file from the ivtv/ivtv/utils directory.  If 
you have the newer remote with four coloured buttons, use the lircd-g.conf 
file, if the older one, just the lirc.conf file that they include with 
IVTV.  Put the appropriate one in /etc/lirc.conf and try it again.  Hope 
that helps.

It actually looks like the driver loaded fine to me.  I don't you need to 
worry about the bttv stuff, I don't believe you need it... but I'm not 
certain.  I am pretty sure I solved my issue with the right lirc.conf file.
