Ok, so I need to do the same but on Gentoo and I'm not quite clear on the
steps.  If I understand this thread correctly, there are ivtv drivers in
both the ivtv and video4linux packages.  Historically people have used the
ivtv package version, but as of 0.22 the v4l package ivtv driver is
proper/necessary.

I understand about uninstalling the ivtv packages, but where does the "new"
v4l ivtv driver come from?  Is it included in recent kernels?  Do I just
enable the v4l ivtv in the kernel config and rebuild?


Thanks
Dave
