well....
there's a new xviddetect in incoming (0.2-2) that has a script for this.
It's a start anyway. Please try it and give comments, and we can go from
there. It also has Eric's very cool SBUS detection patch. Unfortunately, I
haven't had a chance to try that yet. Hopefully I patched it correctly.

The script you want to run is anXious (name courtesy of Branden :P). It uses
whiptail. Run it with the --test option if you don't want it to actually run
apt-get at the end to install the packages.
