I had this same issue under ubuntu.  I noticed that  in the 
/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend startup script the following...
        echo "Starting mythtv"
        echo "loading pcHDTV driver for MythTV"
        modprobe cx88_blackbird
        modprobe  cx88-dvb
        modprobe -r cx8800
        modprobe cx8800

By default I received similar errors to what you had.  I think the order 
of loading these drivers caused my problems and/or the cx88_blackbird 
module.  Not sure what that's for?

I changed it to something like this...

        modprobe -r cx88_blackbird
        modprobe -r cx88-dvb
        # modprobe -r cx8800
        modprobe cx8800
        modprobe cx88-dvb

And everything loads fine now.  Try unloading and loading the drivers 
manually to see where it fails.

HTH.
