Try > using the dvb-fe-tda10045.fw from dvb-kernel CVS. Recently there was a change in the tda1004x-frontend-driver, which seems to prevent the firmware-loading for the tda10045. Hartmut Hackman provided a patch, which is not in CVS yet, because it's untested http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2005-May/002135.html and the following. I don't know if Gentoo uses daily CVS. If they do, the patch should fix it. If it solves the problem, please CC the linux-dvb mailing list, too. HTH, Patrick.
