Hi Linus,
   I've visiting at my parents house and gave 2.6.15-rc7 a try on my
dad's machine. This machine is his normal desktop box which I
administer remotely, as well as a MythTV server. The new kernel built
and booted fine. I then built the NVidia stuff. However when I tried
to build the ivtv driver from portage it failed:

 * Determining the location of the kernel source code
 * Found kernel source directory:
 *     /usr/src/linux
 * Found sources for kernel version:
 *     2.6.15-rc7
 * Checking for suitable kernel configuration options:
>>> Unpacking source...

>>> Source unpacked.
 * Preparing ivtv module

   Most probably this is stuff the Gentoo devs will clean up when the
real kernel comes out but I *think* you were asking for this sort of
info so I'm posting it back.

Cheers to all,
