[mythtv-users] Advice Needed for Gentoo

[William H. Gilmore]

?

All,

Given Redhat's announcement of killing off its personal line, I have decided to look for a nother distro.  Since my current project in MythTV, I have decided to build Myth on Gentoo.  While I like that Gentoo doesn't have much extra in it other than what you explicitly install, I am having problems with bttv.

According to multiple references on the web, the kernel modules for bttv should be in the gentoo-sources kernel.  V4L does not contain a bttv option.  When I download 0.9.1.1 from bytesex.org and compile it, I received unresolved symbol errors.

I would appreciate hearing from any of you that have Myth running on Gentoo especially if you are using the bttv module.  What source are you using.  Have you done anything odd to get myth to work?

TIA,

William
