It compiles and runs but it does not display video to the local
gentoo linux system. The author claims it works on SUSE.
Also, have you tried upgrade nvwa, i see from the website that .6 is out.
Well, I do not think this is the problem. If somebody knowns
what they are doing with C++, then it is a good tool,
but I'm an old C/assembler hack
I don't really know how to help you, but i don't mind trying. ;)
I can email the sourcecode to you, compile it and see what you think. You
can check the sourcecode and make suggestions, as the original
author may not be a real whiz either, or something is missing
from the sources, and it is only intended to run on Fedora or
Suse. I just don't know. If you or anyone will consider helping
me a little bit, send me some private email at:
I am quite good at C++ and may be willing to help. If you tar up the source,
how big is the tarball? Please don't send it right away. I am sitting here in
Africa and am connected via a percussion group. You don't want those guys die
of exhaustion. ;-)
