           Summary: 'ztv' component needs an upgrade to V4L2
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/geode
        AssignedTo: [email protected]

The original V4L support in the Linux kernel had been slated for removal for a
long time and it seems that it has now happened starting with kernel 2.6.38, as
spotted by Ubuntu developers:

xserver-xorg-video-geode (2.11.11-1ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/01_remove_v4l_driver.patch:
    - Don't build the 'ztv' video input driver.  V4L has been removed from the
      2.6.38 kernel.  Until ztv has been updated to a V4L2 driver it will not
      build or be useful.

Given this, we need to either remove the 'ztv' component or, preferably,
upgrade it to V4L2 standards ASAP, before various Linux distributions start
experiencing build errors with the Geode driver.
