I'm using ivtv 0.4.0 (and previously 0.3.8) for a PVR-150, and the 2.6.13 kernel dvb driver (and previously 2.6.12) for an HD3000. The only conflict is tveeprom; I deleted the ivtv version of tveeprom and use the kernel version for both. I have a Gentoo system so everything is compiled from sources in their portage tree.
