OK so this is an upstream issue that the lack of support for V4L1
shouldn't trigger V4L support off all together (and/or the code needs to
be reworked).  I've punted this upstream.

** Summary changed:

- V4L support not enabled
+ V4L support can't be enabled on 2.6.38+

** Changed in: mythtv (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Triaged

Title:
  V4L support can't be enabled on 2.6.38+

Status in MythTV:
  Unknown
Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mythtv

  My capture card has been disabled since Myth isn't built with V4L.  My
  previous version installed roughly two weeks ago had it.

  Perhaps libv4l-dev needs to be a build-dep?

  V4L card configured on video device /dev/video0, 
  but MythTV was not compiled with V4L support. 

  Recompile MythTV with V4L support or remove the card 
  from the configuration and restart MythTV.
