Ahh, yes I guess I've been reading it wrong all these years! Oooops. It's amazing I managed to configure a kernel at all for the past 17 years. :o) VIDEO_DEV was nowhere to be found in menuconfig as a selectable option. But the other choice I made forced it to be selected. Dan

After 45 minutes of messing about trying all sorts of combinations, I found it has a hidden requirement for CONFIG_MEDIA_CAMERA_SUPPORT. This is not present in the help in menuconfig or the Kconfig file in the source tree? Whatever, I finally found it. Dan

[gentoo-user] Kernel option missing - very frustrating...
Well, I bought a new TV tuner card for MythTV, a Hauppauge QuadHD. It uses the cx23885 driver, but I can't find it anywhere. According to menuconfig: Symbol: VIDEO_CX23885 [=n] Type : tristate Prompt: Conexant cx23885 (2388x successor) support Location: -> Device Drivers -> Multimedia support (MEDIA_SUPPORT [=y]) (1) -> Media PCI Adapters (MEDIA_PCI_SUPPORT [=y]) But it isn't there. I checked its dependencies: Depends on: MEDIA_SUPPORT [=y] && MEDIA_PCI_SUPPORT [=y] && (MEDIA_ANALOG_TV_SUPPORT [=n] || MEDIA_DIGITAL_TV_SUPPORT [=y]) && DVB_CORE [=y] && VIDEO_DEV [=n] && PCI [=y] && I2C [=y] && INPUT [=y] && SND [=y] && RC_CORE [=y] ..and... : # grep 'CONFIG_MEDIA_SUPPORT=\|CONFIG_MEDIA_PCI_SUPPORT=\|CONFIG_MEDIA_ANALOG_TV_SUPPORT=\|CONFIG_MEDIA_DIGITAL_TV_SUPPORT=\|CONFIG_DVB_CORE=\|CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=\|CONFIG_PCI=\|CONFIG_I2C=\|CONFIG_INPUT=\|CONFIG_SND=\|CONFIG_RC_CORE=' .config CONFIG_PCI=y CONFIG_INPUT=y CONFIG_I2C=y CONFIG_RC_CORE=y CONFIG_MEDIA_SUPPORT=y CONFIG_MEDIA_DIGITAL_TV_SUPPORT=y CONFIG_DVB_CORE=y CONFIG_MEDIA_PCI_SUPPORT=y CONFIG_SND=y So why on earth isn't it showing? The dependencies should be satisfied. I hope someone has some insight... I've had this problem before with tuner cards not showing and I can't remember how I fixed it. Kernel version is 5.4.2, but I also tried 4.14.143 with no difference... Dan
