I finally got out a guide update last night that reflects the change. One 
nit... Since the ivtv-kmdl package isn't pulling in a video4linux-kmdl 
package, the user has no tveeprom at all, so 'alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv' 
is a necessity. And on my box, my ~2yr old PVR-250 doesn't work with the 
v4l-kmdl-provided tveeprom anywho. Ah well. :-)
