0.10.6 Packages for FC4 are at http://atrpms.net/dist/fc4/ivtvdev/, both i386 and x86_64. Hary, if you want to build from svn (at a later time, when svn will be different from the latest release) check out the specfile at http://dl.atrpms.net/all/ivtvdev.spec That's how the packages are built, and it contains both the build dependencies for Fedora Core as well as the steps used to build and install it. Ideally you can tar up an xdriver svn snapshot and modify the specfile to build rpms for that svn snapshot (just make sure your versioning is <= 0.10.7-1, e.g. 0.10.7-0_svn20050906). > > I'm doing a fresh install of MythTV on FC4.
