Do  a 'find / -name 'tveeprom*'

You should find one under /lib/modules/$KVER/kernel....

Another under  /lib/modules/$KVER/updates....

and the one causing the problem would be from the ivtv install under

/lib/modules/$KVER/ivtv...

Its the last 2 you need to re-name so the ONLY the kernel version is used.
