Is viafb patched to actually "listen for" the synching ioctl?

I'm using vdr-1.5.0 with softdevice cvs from last October (patched with 
the lip-sync patch from yesterday), DirectFB, DFB++, and viafb from cvs 
back from last October (with Mark Adams' patches from a long while back), 
and libcle266mpegdec 0.5.

I'm running vdr with "-vo dfb:viatv:cle266" and TV-out to connect to a CRT 
TV and, apart from the odd glitches and A-V sync wandering a bit, I get 
nice, smooth scrolling text (BBC News 24 is good for testing this!).

If I get a chance this weekend, I might have a go at upgrading some bits 
to see if something has changed to break this...

Cheers,

Laz
