So I was looking at the source tree last night for my kernel 2.6.9-r14 and I do see these options. I was under the impression these were only available for 2.6.12, but maybe what was meant was that for 2.6.12 you don't even need to choose to compile them in. That said, when looking at the tree for DVB, it seemed to want me to pick some kind of "front end" - not sure what it wants there. Finally, it appears my version of ivtv (I've got a pvr 350 as well), 2.3 I think, may be conflicting with the pchdtv. Does that jive with your experience? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
