First of all, this isn't really a blocker, since it isn't broken on 2.6.20, it hasn't been ported to it yet, so I'm removing that.

Secondly, I'd prefer to get it merged upstream.  Hans is good about releasing stuff on a timely manner, and I'd rather wait for his.

However, since I haven't even packaged the latest release anyway (or tested it), I'll see what I can do.

ivtv-0.10.0 is out since 17/02 ; according to the README file:
http://ivtvdriver.org/viewcvs/ivtv/branches/0.10/README?rev=3836&view=markup
"This driver will work with kernels 2.6.18, 2.6.19 and 2.6.20. For the latter kernel you will need to apply the cx25840.diff patch that[...]"

[Comment 3 Peter 2007-02-19 20:58:40 UTC]

Created attachment 110694 [details]
ivtv-0.10.0 ebuild

[Comment 4 Peter 2007-02-19 20:59:15 UTC]

Made a quick ebuild of 0.10.0.

According to the ivtv-site it depends on pvr-firmware-20070217 thats not in the portage tree yet either, but thats a simple copy of the ebuild to the new name, so I'm not attaching that.

ivtv-0.10.0 compiles and seems to work fine for me, on amd64 and kernels gentoo-sources-2.6.19-r6 and gentoo-sources-2.6.20. 

[Comment 5 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) 2007-02-19 23:25:59 UTC]

Yes we know. We're working on it. You opened this bug 24 hours after the release. This is what we call a 0-day bug.

[Comment 6 Olivier Castan 2007-02-21 11:44:41 UTC]

Sorry, the purpose wasn't to upset you. I would have proposed an ebuild but I'm not very comfortable with kernel ebuilds.
I think the attached ebuild is missing the rebuild of cx25840.ko after applying the patch in case of 2.6.20 kernel.
