OK, great. Let me know if it turns out that you don't have time for it,
then I'll do it. I think we need new releases of the xdriver within the
next week.
One note: I made a commit to the ivtv trunk adding a new replacement
ioctl for the old IVTVFB_IOCTL_PREP_FRAME:
/* Old ioctl */
#define IVTVFB_IOCTL_PREP_FRAME _IOW('@', 3, struct
ivtvfb_ioctl_dma_host_to_ivtv_args)
/* New ioctl */
#define IVTVFB_IOC_DMA_FRAME _IOW ('V', BASE_VIDIOC_PRIVATE+0, struct
ivtvfb_ioctl_dma_host_to_ivtv_args)
The arguments are exactly the same, only the name changed. When ivtv-fb
is merged into the kernel it will only support the new ioctl, so the
xdriver that is meant for kernel 2.6.22 should also use the new ioctl.
When done, I'll make a new release of the ivtv-1.0.x package containing
this additional ioctl. That makes it possible to use the xdriver for
kernels >= 2.6.22.
Thanks,
Hans
