That's actually the easiest part. It's all there, ready to grab from 
ivtvdriver.org.

It's not nvidia. I don't use it, and I still get occasional kernel crashes 
in 2.6.23. Happens much less than it used to happen, after I updated to the 
latest ivtvfb module, and what's left of the standalone ivtv tarball for 
2.6.23, but it still happens.
