Over the week-end I've tried to compile the 0.3.7a drivers (easy) and to build the new ivtvdev driver (hard, see below): First step: I started with my regular (almost) Debian sarge box and try to compile the ivtvdev. However, the makefile instructs me to use xmkmf on the X-sources.. makes sense, but I'm using the binary package. Second step: Get the source(includes biking to work, downloading and biking back, unpack it and run xmkmf for ivtvdev Three: Fix complaints to missing headers by inserting three or four extra libs into the INCLUDE part of the generated Makefile Four: Building works, all object files are linked into the ivtvdev_drv.o, installed it restarted X and voila version 0.10.5 reported to duty. Five: Hmm, mplayer -vo xv does not work/start. xvinfo tells me, there is no adaptor present :( Six: Skimming through the sources.. no idea what went wrong (I've just seen that if Xv is disabled at compile time the message: "XVDriver disabled at compilation time" should be displayed, but I don't recall that one, however, I cannot rule out, that this might be the issue. Any hints, suggestions what I did wrongly? Cheers Carsten ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
