There's a source tree for an xorg 7 version from Gentoo[0] which I have initial packages based upon[1]. The source files are mostly the same as the monolithic version, it's just the addition of auto* tools use and paths to some headers which needed to change. David Nusinow (CC'd) has offered to be sponsor the packages as part of the XSF. My plan was to spend today getting them finished up and checked in to the XSF svn tree. Unfortunately some recent changes in xorg have broken what I had already so the final tidy up is taking a little longer than I was expecting. Ian. [0] I'm not sure it's actually in Gentoo proper, but it is linked from http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Howto:Gentoo [1] A version from a few weeks ago is at http://www.hellion.org.uk/ivtv/debian/ although they don't work with the current unstable tree. -- Ian Campbell You!
