xforms replacement
What is a "Free" graphics/windowing/x library out there? I have a program that's written for xforms that I'd like to port to something that can go in main, not non-free. fltk won't work. I need the beable to plot graphs and fltk doesn't implement the xyplot function group of xforms. Come to think of it.. would a program requiring xforms go in non-free or contrib? -- http://benham.net/index.html -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCS d+(-) s:+ a29 C++$ UL++> P+++$ L++> E?

Audio/Video Broadcast
I have a problem, I'm looking for the solution and I'm wondering if Debian has the software packaged to solve it... and if not if someone could point me to the software I would need. I need to broadcast video (say, from a capture card) and audio (ie.. from the microphone) and data (say, a NFS mount) across a PPP connection between two Debian boxes... I'm sure there's software out there to do this.. Or software that might need a minor wedge between pieces.. Basicly I want to capture a performance at one hall and display it on monitors at a second hall... - Gecko -- http://benham.net/index.html -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCS d+(-) s:+ a29 C++$ UL++> P+++$ L++> E?
