Description devsk 2007-03-26 16:23:45 UTC
I don't have the Trident card in my system. Why is ivtv checking for it hard and failing?

From log:

 * Checking for suitable kernel configuration options...
 *   CONFIG_FB_TRIDENT:  is not set when it should be.

From ebuild:

    if use fbcon; then
        MODULE_NAMES="${MODULE_NAMES} ivtv-fb(extra:${S}/driver)"
        CONFIG_CHECK="${CONFIG_CHECK} FB FB_TRIDENT FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE FONTS"
    fi

Is trident card a hard requirement for building ivtv's fb module?
