How can I find out > why it's dying so as to find a way to stop it from dying? I've had that problem on and off. I have never been able to get a good response on what causes it. In my case I've deleted and rebuilt settings as I suggested earlier and it fixed it. In other cases it did not. Long ago I found that if I installed ivtv-0.2.0 and then installed ivtv-0.4.0 over the top of it that it fixed it. Probably my best results have been using ivtv from the web site instead of portage, but even that hasn't been fool proof. It's a tough one being that I'm not a developer or even a sys admin - just a funky stupid user type. If I can remember anything else I've done I'll write back again. - Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
