Hi Linus,
I've visiting at my parents house and gave 2.6.15-rc7 a try on my
dad's machine. This machine is his normal desktop box which I
administer remotely, as well as a MythTV server. The new kernel built
and booted fine. I then built the NVidia stuff. However when I tried
to build the ivtv driver from portage it failed:
There's nothing the kernel developers can do about regressions in out of
tree modules - there is no stable kernel module API so the authors of
that module will have to fix it.
Any idea why the IVTV module has not been submitted for mainline?
Lee
No idea. I even asked the IVTV developers mailing list some time ago
trying to get them to include it in mainline, but they did not want to
for some odd reason I could not work out.
Maybe someone else can kick them a little harder. :-)
