Hi,
I currently have quite some trouble compiling the saa7134 video driver
from bytesex.org, because the v4l2 patch it requires uses some api features from kernel 2.4.18-pre8, and i allways get missing symbols now:

Code:

modprobe saa7134
/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r7/kernel/drivers/media/video/saa7134.o: unresolved symbol video_usercopy


will the next gentoo kernel use pre8 or 9, or even better include v4l2 ?

If you need a patch for 2.4.19-pre8, why not download 2.4.19-pre8 and apply the patch? gentoo-sources, as of recently, is a patched 2.4.19-pre7-ac2.

Use an incremental patch, then:
