Currently the ivtv-firmware packages are not being installed by default along with the other ivtv packages, which means that the card is not initialized properly. The fix is simple: Alt-Ctrl-2 into a session and issue the following commands:

   apt-get install ivtv-firmware
   rmmod ivtv
   modprobe ivtv

This should give you a working card
