Hi,

I have a 

    bttv0: detected: AVermedia AverTV DVB-T 771 [card=123], PCI subsystem ID is 
1461:0771

dvb-t card installed in my PC.

I am running a vanilla linux kernel version 2.6.37 .

Furthermore in

    /lib/firmware

there is a folder called

    av7110

which I think contains the firmware for that card.

I read, that I need "hotplug" to load this firmware while booting.

I did a 

    emerge hotplug

which runs fine but gave me warning that I should emerge coldplug.

Ok, so I did an additional

    emerge coldplug 

which fails with

    solfire:/home/mccramer>sudo emerge coldplug
    Calculating dependencies... done!
    [ebuild  N    ] sys-apps/coldplug-20040920-r1
    [blocks B     ] sys-apps/coldplug ("sys-apps/coldplug" is blocking 
sys-fs/udev-151-r4)
    [blocks B     ] >=sys-fs/udev-089 (">=sys-fs/udev-089" is blocking 
sys-apps/coldplug-20040920-r1)

    * Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
    * installed at the same time on the same system.

    (sys-apps/coldplug-20040920-r1, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
        coldplug


If I understand this correctly, I have to downgrade udev from udev-151
down to udev-089 to be able to install coldplug.

Is this really needed? How can I install the firmware?

Thank you very much in advance for any help!

Best regards,
mcc
