Updating IVTV Modules in Debian

Also after a kernel upgrade, remember to build the latest modules:

~~module-assistant auto-install ivtv~~

Never mind that, just do:

apt-get install ivtv-modules-2.6.18-4-686 (or whatever kernel you’re running) as Greg says to. Just make sure that you get the firmware from the IVTV site and put it in the /lib/firmware directory. I am also putting a line for ivtv in /etc/modules and udev seems to pick it up by default.
