Try not to use the ck-sources kernel, you can't change 
colour/brightness/contrast with it, I think he's using an older version 
of the v4l2 patch. I can adjust contrast/etc. fine with the 
gentoo-sources kernel, gs-sources should be fine too.

Also, if you're following the docs on the MythTV website, you DON'T need 
KDE to run myth, I have yet to contact the maintainer of that part of 
the docs... should save you a few hours of compiling ;)
