Brian asked me to look into options "LIRC_OPTS="--with-driver=hauppauge" in /etc/make.conf". This seems like Gentoo lingo. I tried the HOWTO at  Gentoo-Wiki and that confused me even further with stuff like "emerge" and "/etc/portage/package.keywords". I have never used Gentoo before, but I am open to any solutions to my problem.

I am not at my MythTV box now but the problem I had was that the make command generated a lot of errors the firsts ones having something to do with missing "../drivers/media/video/bttv.h" and similar files. The command ./configure --with-driver=pixelview_pro succeded without errors. I have two kernel sources installed i.e
  • /usr/src/kernels/2.6.11.1_1365_FC4/ and
  • /usr/src/kernels/2.6.14.1_1656_FC4/

Probably I do not have the correct kernel modules for my chosen driver (PixelView PlayTV Pro - bt878 card). I have no idea how to install those.

When I compiled 0.8.0pre4 on FC4 the other day it was very
straightforward. What problems are you having? Having you got the
kernel source installed?
