apt-get install rpm-build
wget \
http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/dist/common/ivtv-firmware/ivtv-firmware-17_21288-1.at.src.rpm
rpmbuild --rebuild ivtv-firmware-17_21288-1.at.src.rpm
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/ivtv-firmware-17_21288-1.at.i386.rpm

Now install the actual ivtv driver components:

export MYKERNEL=`uname -r`
apt-get install ivtv-kmdl-$MYKERNEL
apt-get install ivtv
