please add an ebuild for these drivers, they work fine on x64 Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 115358 [details] Ebuild for 1.0.0
Have created an ebuild for ov51x - I don't have a camera here but it builds and inserts into a 2.6.19 kernel with no problems - I've commited the ebuild to the Gentoo Sunrise Overlay at http://gentoo-sunrise.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/changeset/3320
Created attachment 143527 [details] ov51x-jpeg-1.5.6.ebuild Sunrise isn't up to date. There is no download for the 1.5.5 version.
There is a working ebuild in sunrise, which works also when bumped to 1.5.7 which is the current version of ov51x-jpeg.

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug) 'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached to this bug. This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the main tree. Heuristics show that no Gentoo developer has commented on your ebuild. Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Jeremy.

Yeah I'm probably doing something bad here, i have no idea of the impact but it does work, for me. I comment out lines like this from ov51x-jpeg-core.c located between lines 681 to 766 ov->proc_info->owner = THIS_MODULE; ov->proc_devdir->owner = THIS_MODULE; ov->proc_button->owner = THIS_MODULE; ov->proc_control->owner = THIS_MODULE; ov51x_jpeg_proc_entry->owner = THIS_MODULE;
From kernel 2.6.38 AFAIK Video4Linux version 1 is deprecated and removed. I have kernel 3.0* and got this whet trying to build: >>> Emerging (1 of 1) media-video/ov51x-jpeg-1.5.7 from Local-portage-overlay * ov51x-jpeg-1.5.7.tar.gz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ...
