The build of the RivaTV modules seems to lack the rights to compile RivaTV inside the kernel build directory. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge rivatv Actual Results: Checking for write access to /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/build... no *** WARNING: *** It looks like you do not have write access to the kernel sources, *** which is required when building for 2.6 kernels. Checking for framebuffer... none Checking for SMP... no Your setup got 0 error(s) and 1 warning(s). We recommend you try to resolve the issues before using RivaTV.

Please test with rivatv-0.8.5-r3. It does not seem to have this problem. At least not with my computer.
Fixed in stable builds.
