Re: IVTV X driver



Hi David,

Are you still happy to sponsor the IVTV X driver?

Is there anything you'd like me to do to make things easier for you?
For example with my other package my sponsor just takes them direct from
SVN but it looks like it is a bit more work for X modules since there
are a few more manual steps so if you would like me to put together
a .dsc/.diff.gz/.orig.tar.gz set I'm happy to do that.

Cheers,
Ian.

Every successful person has had failures but repeated failure is no
guarantee of eventual success.
