Problem solved.

I will explain, so it could help someone else.
I had the problem with .deb package version and "native" version from 
ivtvdriver.org.
Copying bins to /lib/firware didn't solved the problem.
Problem was solved by using svn version.

Under Debian, as root:

apt-get install subversion
svn co http://ivtvdriver.org/svn/ivtv/branches/0.4 ivtv-0.4
cd ivtv-0.4/driver/
# As my Kernel was compiled with gcc v3.3
make install CC=gcc-3.3 
# Firmware where already there.
# not sure next line is necessary...
depmod -a
modprobe -r ivtv
modprode ivtv


I works nice.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Hi,

I had a similar problem. When I copied the "encoder/ decoder"-bins to 
"/lib/firmware" (not to /lib/modules what I found somewhere) loading the 
firmware was no longer a problem. Maybe this helps.

Greetings
