Very happy Gentoo-user here as well. I've got both ebuilds for the
latest ivtv driver; working with 0.3.2g + patches now, switching to
0.3.2h probably this evening.
I also have ebuilds for MythTV-CVS so I can stay with the development
branch; whenever there are some updates I like, I rebuild MythTV. As
most developers are running MythTV on their own box, even CVS is
rather stable, i.e. I haven't run into any major problem with it yet.
