The xdriver is now in portage. i can't speak for if it is compatible
with 7.2, but I know that the last time I installed it, it required no
additional patching (I am running 7.1.1, and xf86-video-ivtvdev is
version 0.10.6). Unfortunately, the XDriver version numbers do not
increment with the different xorg versions, despite patches being
needed to make it compile as X changes. I think those patches are
being included as part of the ebuild, not as part of the xdriver
release. A shame, since it makes it really hard for other
distributions to make it work.
