Thanks for the quick response.  On boot, when I do: 'dmesg | grep ivtv'
nothing is returned.  However, if I first do a 'modprobe ivtv' followed
by the previous command, I get the output included below.

Also, in my modprobe.conf I have this line but I guess it's not working:
install ivtv /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv; /sbin/modprobe ivtv-
fb

ll /dev/fb? shows:

Start 'dmesg | grep ivtv' output
