-	{{Note\|On gentoo, a typical kernel will include only the needed modules for your hardware. That imply that emerge will not find the needed ivtv kernel options and will fail to install ivtv-utils (that provide v4l2-ctl). The only workaround at that time (14 july 2009) is to install ivtv-utils from the svn as explained here: [http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Download#SVN_checkout IVTV SVN checkout]
