IIRC, the ivtv builds are linked to the kernel version - older kernels require you to use older ivtv builds. For example, kernel 2.6.19.* will take ivtv 0.9, while kernel 2.6.18.* takes ivtv 0.8. ivtv 1.0.* has worked for any kernel since 2.6.21, so unless you plan on downgrading below that, you should stick with 1.0. -Tim -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

In some cases, documents sent as type application/octet-stream silently fail to print (I had this trouble a while ago) if the mime-type isn't enabled in /etc/cups/mime.types and mime.convs. Those files get replaced with some cups builds, and by default octet-stream isn't enabled in the packaged files.
