I was under the impression that was not the case - just a suitable
via_drv (and via_dri). I thought/assumed that, as this version had a
via_drv.o driver, it was suitable .... it obviously isn't for hardware
acceleration (but I've downloaded a new one ... just the via_drv.o) and
that is showing up a problem with v4l _somewhere_.

I'm currently recompiling the kernel (with options more aligned to those
mentioned on epiawiki. My compile was already pretty close (I use
modules more and don't use dev-fs), but I think it's steered more
towards gentoo (which does use dev-fs). Still, better to work from a
base that hopefully works :^)

Cheers
