Don't Panic! ivtv is really quite easy to build and install. The xdriver
is more difficult, but still
doable.

Nothing to it really. Build and install the ivtv 0.3.8 and xdriver
0.10.6, and you're done. Just
use XV and enjoy.


Is there a howto on that? installing ivtv is fine with gentoo, emerge should be able to do it without any problem. compiling the xdriver is so far proving to be a pretty hefty challenge. Are there particular versions of X that this is known to work with? I am working on writing an ebuild for gentoo that puts ivtv into the correct directory among x.org 5.8.2-r5, but it doesn't want to compile. What directory am I supposed to give it when I run xmkmf (it says "X SOURCES" but that is very vague...what directory is it looking for?). What should I do when it dumps out with this message:

ivtv_xv.c: In function `IVTVStopVideo':
ivtv_xv.c:459: error: storage size of `colorKey' isn't known
ivtv_xv.c:462: error: `IVTVFB_IOCTL_SET_COLORKEY' undeclared (first use in this function)

Thanks!
