Are you using a pvr-350 for output?  that's what the ivtv-fb module is
for.  If not, I think you can ignore the unresolved symbol.

The last two errors are telling you ... well, that modprobe can't locate
those particular modules.  Where are they?  try this if you can't find
them:

as root:
#updatedb

as a regular user:
$locate lirc_i2c.o
$locate lirc_dev.o

if you can't find them then you did not build them.  The config files I
did not look at and they could be right or wrong but if modprobe can't
find the modules then it is irrelevant what the major/minor assignment
is.
