What is the final word then, what made it work for all of you?
As far as I can remember my useage (which dates quite a bit...), I
always had ioctl warnings, but they were never fatal.
If it helps (not sure if there is still need), I have quite a bit of old
xawtv version in source archive format (7 versions from 3.10 to 3.72).
Cheers
Michel
PS If you had to patch PlanB, I am interested in getting the patch. At
least I can keep everything together then :-)
