Hi Luke,
I got this card going just using a stock standard ubuntu-generic kernel.
I didn't reconfigure the kernel at all.
I simply install v4l-dvb, reboot and away we go.

It sounds like you may be using a custom gentoo kernel, perhaps?
One thought that could be a possibility, in your config file, have you 
also selected v4l2?

I'm afraid I don't know too much about gentoo.

Regards,
Timf
