Subject: [gentoo-amd64] CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT Kernel Option
Unable to find CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT option in Make Menuconfig.
So I went and looked over the .config file and still do not see such
an option.
Did a search, several in fact, and found the mentioned
"CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT=y" mentioned many times and that it would
appear to be located in "Device Drivers" "Multimedia Devices", but it
still seems to be missing.
Is anyone able to give me an idea as to where this kernel option is
located?
located in "Device Drivers", "Multimedia Devices", "Video for
Linux","Enable Video For Linux API 1 (DEPRECATED}"
Note that you won't see the last unless you 'y' or 'm' the next to last.
Thanks

Thanks Drake and Mike,
The problem of the kernel option was caused by the fact that I was
running an older kernel and the option was not included.
Upgraded the kernel, and the option is now available, though now
fails with other problems.
