Could you please post the whole error message (with filename, command
line, etc.)?haha, I got it to work! while I was trying to get a log for the build process I realized that it wasn't including all the files for some reason. It's up and running now. Thanks!
I think I'm going to finish packaging it up and make an ebuild for it

Wow, this new version of X makes the ivtv driver SO much faster! I almost can't tell it's framebuffer!
Also - sharevts is nice. You can tell the X session to always display, even when it's not active.
I second the problem that other people are noting - when the encoder is active, you can't use XV to decode without a stutter.
So I have a tar.bz2 file that contains all of the necessary files to build and a .ebuild file that goes in the portage overlay (gentoo). What is the appropriate way to distribute these? the tarball contains files from the original XDriver source since so much of it had to be modified. I'm sure it's technically possible to combine all of that into a mess of patches and have it download the original source directly, but it makes more sense to leave it in this format, since it matches the other drivers in xorg 7. Thoughts?

I spoke too soon, it's not working quite right, yet.
If I run X with -sharevts using the ivtvdev driver, it brings CPU usage for that process up to 100% and stays there eating CPU. Also, as a side effect, I can't switch to VTs anymore once I run it, they show up as a screen full of garbled color.
