Should do it, but you would probably be better served to figure out why 
the eeprom module is loading before the ivtv module.  For example, you 
may have init scripts loading the modules in the wrong order, or it may 
simply be because you have something like a BTTV card that's in a PCI 
slot that's closer to 0 (i.e. closer to the processor) than the ivtv 
card's PCI slot.

Make sure you run "depmod -ae" after modifying modprobe.conf.  Note, 
also, that depending on how your distro has obfuscated modprobe.conf, 
you may need to put this info in a different file (i.e. 
/etc/modules.d/eeprom.modprobe or something).  Check the lists for your 
distro for more details or just use trial and error to get something 
working...
