I saw the binary ivtv-firmware rpm, but something didn't look quite 
right... Is everything really there? It is only 99K, while the src.rpm 
is 1.7MB, and the two firmware .bin files that get extracted are 256K 
each... I suppose its possible the two firmware files compress down to 
fit in a 99K package though...
