I have not yet had success getting ivtvdev to work with xorg 7.1. My /etc/portage/packages.mask contains the following: >=x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.99 >=x11-base/xorg-x11-7.1 >=x11-base/xorg-server-1.1.0 >=x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-1.1.2-r1 >=x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa-1.2.0 >=x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse-1.1.1 >=x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard-1.1.0 >=x11-drivers/xf86-video-nv-1.1.2 >=x11-drivers/xf86-video-fbdev-0.3.0 >=x11-drivers/xf86-video-v4l-0.1.1 The newest package for ivtv (0.8.1-r1) should install the ivtv-fb driver, but only if you have CONFIG_FB in your kernel. It's now using the use keyword "fbcon" to enable the framebuffer module. When I install xf86-video-ivtvdev, it installs xorg version 7.0-r1 (xorg-server 1.0.2-r7). I had to patch xf86-video-ivtvdev to get it to compile, but I posted the changes I made to the bugzilla entry on ivtvdev: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155274 This works for me on 2.6.18-r1, xorg 7.0-r1, ivtv 0.8.1-r1. Your mileage may vary, but that's what I have working fine at the moment. If you need to see any other version numbers or config files let me know. - Jeff _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
