I recommend trying different versions of the driver.  For me, some 
drivers work and some don't.

I wouldn't use anything prior to ivtv-0.1.9.

Other versions you may want to try:
ivtv-0.1.9 with Matthias Badaire's prepdma patch (from 
http://membres.lycos.fr/badzzzz/ )
ivtv-0.1.9 with Hans Verkuil's patch ( from 
http://www.xs4all.nl/~hverkuil/ --it's basically 0.1.9 with prepdma and 
Hans' patch)
ivtv-0.1.9a (from http://membres.lycos.fr/badzzzz/ )
ivtv-0.1.10pre2 with Chris Kennedy's patches (from 
http://kmos.org/~ckennedy/ivtv/ )\
  -- Specifically, 06, 07D, 24, (you're using 26 now) 27, 35
