I am now running Linux camille 2.6.36-gentoo-r5 kernel.  My ivtv drivers
don't work with this kernel.  The newest ivtv drivers in portage only
work on 2.6.25 kernels.  What should I do?

Did you try downloading and building a newer version from the ivtv website?
If there's a version there that works with the new kernels, file a bug
report on f.g.o for a version bump, and either wait for that or use hand
built drivers that won't be tracked by portage. If your card doesn't have
drivers that work with your new kernel,  you're pretty much s.o.l.

The IVTV driver should be included in the kernel sources already since
2.6.22, from what I can find on Google.

From what I can tell, you should emerge the latest ivtv-utils and
it'll tell you if your kernel is missing any configuration options.
