An old laptop, some miscellaneous stuff, etc. I could spend $200 - 300 dollars better than on a test machine for blackbox.

cvs test release available on sf.net
I have made a testing release from CVS. Up front let me say this is still code in progress. If you can not afford 5 minutes of debugging time in your hectic 26 hour day wait for a real release. That said there is a lot of potential here. We now use the STL and some of Brad's code from moving_target. By early reports the code is only getting faster. It is definately getting cleaner and easier to manage. We need your help to get any of the little bugs out of the code. To help we have started adding assert() statements so blackbox will die with a helpful message rather than a core dump if you get somewhere we didn't think possible. Expect more asserts to enter the code as we move forward with testing. The sooner we get this code clean the sooner we can begin the next phase. What is the next phase? That is the split of some of the code into a library for use by blackbox and the bbtools. The goal here is to find and fix bugs in one place. Once we have the lib in place and hacking bbtools is relatively easy the work of implementing netwm will begin. By the time we get there netwm should be pretty painless. So, please grab the tarball and try to compile it. Enable core dumps (ulimit -c unlimited in bash). I hope to make these CVS releases fairly regularly. At least one a month, probably closer to one every week or two. Of course if a big bug party crops up I am more than willing to make a release every morning. The Changelog has some of the highlights, cvs has more. I will add more depth to the Changelog before the real release.
anyone able to test XawTV?
Recently it has been reported that the 0.62.0 series breaks XawTV. Subject in the list was 0.62 messes up xawtv/v4l video capture. I am looking for anyone able to test and give a positive or negative to this report.

I don't do video capture with it though... just watch cable TV. :) I will often leave it running full-screen on the right-hand monitor while I'm working on the left (hey, gotta get work done while I watch Gilmore Girls ^_^) ... and it shifts video modes and does it's thing and doesn't seem to malfunction at all. I can move the mouse over to the other monitor and work with no difficulties. -- Marc Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.cox.net/msw
Please test! Full l10n man patch against 0.62.0pre5
So, here is a bigger patch agains the _vanilla_ 0.62.0pre5 fixing the localized manual pages install. The localized manual pages are NOT installed if somebody configures with --disable-nls. The install procedure plays nice with DESTDIR (make DESTDIR=pseudo/root/dir install) The patch also fixes the @pkgdatadir@ that was left in manpages, and makes very small corrections to the Dutch manpage and nls. The Makefile.am files for the localized man pages are very easy to adapt for other languages. Just change the line 'locale = ' The patch also fixes the menu install: The menu _is_ installed if it's not there. If there is already a menu file, it will not be overwritten. Also the 'make uninstall' was fixed. It will not give an error if styles or menudir is not empty after uninstall. Please after applying this patch, rerun aclocal automake (I needed automake -a) autoconf This worked for me, though I'm using automake 1.5 here. Please test! Enjoy!! -- Wilbert Berendsen (http://www.xs4all.nl/~wbsoft/) blackbox-0.62.0pre5_full_l10n_manual.patch.gz Description: Binary data
