Ok, making progress.  I unmerged ivtv and installed 0.3.4j instead
from www.ivtv.tv.  Now I get the following:

>modprobe cx88-dvb
dmesg shows...
or51132: Unknown symbol release_firmware
or51132: Unknown symbol request_firmware
cx88_dvb: Unknown symbol or51132_attach

>modprobe cx8800
dmesg shoes....

>modprobe cx88-dvb
dmesg still shows...
or51132: Unknown symbol release_firmware
or51132: Unknown symbol request_firmware
cx88_dvb: Unknown symbol or51132_attach

Almost there - what's next?
