[mythtv-users] Gentoo, PVR350, ivtv and Xorg 6.8.0 NO ivtvdev

[John Harvey]

The binary version should run fine for a 32 bit Xorg
as well.
I am not sure what version of ivtv you are using but
assuming it is recent version then the ivtvdev_drv.o
is bundled with the ivtv releases (on 
ivtv.no-ip.info). The latest (fastest) ones are not
available for download individually at the moment. 
If you still dont get anywhere email me the Xorg.0.log
file.
