You still need a fixed modutils rpm, as packaged on
http://atrpms.net/name/modutils/

BTW I'd welcome testing & reporting bugs on cx88, there are stable and
experimental packages available at

http://atrpms.net/name/cx88/
http://atrpms.net/name/video4linux/
http://atrpms.net/name/video4linux-experimental/

Thanks!
