Wierd problems on loading ivtv module on startup

I have dug through my logs and found some more info that maybe someone
smarter than me can diagnose.

Setup: PVR-350 tv-out, RH FC1, followed Jarod's guide. Trying to use tv
as the monitor. Have had success getting tv and am watching now through
mythtv.

Problem: On startup, it appears my ivtv module is not loading properly,
and I have to type in the console /sbin/modprobe ivtv which then throws me
over to the tv (though I can't read text). If I type "killall gdm-binary"
in the blind (as I can't see what I am typing), that then starts up gdm
and allows me to log in and get kde on the tv, and I can startup
mythbackend and mythfrontend.

Checking my logs, I see this:
Feb 17 08:15:00 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module fb0

I am not sure what exactly is going on here.
There is no reference to fb0 in my /etc/modules.conf, though I do have
this line:
add above ivtv ivtv-fb
(it is the exact config in Jarod's guide)

and my XF86Config has this:
### change fb0 to whatever your card grabbed
Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"

The PVR-350 is definatly at fb0, and I can watch tv normally once i go
this little hiccup step.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gabe
