OK, I did look at the messages (should have done that from the beginning)
and I got:

I looked a bit around and found that ivtv-fw-enc.bin was in /lib/modules/.
I looked more around and found that somebody solved it by putting in in
/lib/firmware, so I moved it (not copied it) and now I got:

As you can see it still is looking somewhere on the wrong place.
No idea where it is actually looking, because I then would put
ivtv-fw-enc.bin in that place


I will also do the mknod -m 666 ... to make the /dev/video0 and see what
happens. So close and yet so far. :-)
