Hmm, didn't know there were sources available for the vic-qcam version. I grabbed a binary a year ago from your site or Jim Lowe I believe. Could you point me to the sources and I will try to fetch them if not too large and compile it here later today.

The yuv422 patch introduces a minor bug in that a green line appears at the bottom of the captured window . There is no easy work around for this right now. If no one complaints about the patches not working , then I suggest that that they should be applied to the released version of the bt848 driver.

With RAT being locked into OSS, do we have to migrate the other audio tools such as VAT to OSS as well? For the time being RAT is only re- leased in binary form so there won't be much chance of rewriting its sound driver interface.

I will never be able to check it out since my computer got stolen last night out of my car when I left it for half an hour here in Berlin at the conference. Hope I will get it reimbursed by my incurance. Then, probably with the new set up and the experience I made compiling vic-2.8 with various tk/tcl versions (where I finally got found that the stock libtcl5 was missing two functions - tclLoadCmd or something) during the past two days I will get it working myself.

Er, perhaps in the commit message for the port (the only place I announced it, conditional on the not-yet-committed linux_lib-2.4 port), or perhaps in the port's Makefile where it specifically checks for the libc that's needed? You will note that the Makefile for the port only checks the libc version; if there were other requirements, they'd be checked too. There's even a _comment_ there explaining the requirement!

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-multimedia@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi Folks, I'm pulling my hair out in frustration at the assumptions that get made about what other people know... I've just copied qcamdriver v1.1 and I haven't the faintest idea how to go about re-compiling a lkm. It is distributed with a hierarchy under freebsd/sys. I'm wondering if there is some mechanism under FreeBSD for compiling using a separate source hierarchy for the new files, or if I simply have to copy all the individual files into /usr/src/sys/i386/..., merge sys/i386/conf/files.i386.diff into /sys/i386/conf/files.i386, etc. ALSO, there is a sys/i386/i386/conf.c.diff.freebsd but there is no conf.c in /sys/i386/i386!! Can someone please give me the necessary info to get this driver built? Please send me a mail at urban@rto.dec.com. Rob Urban P.S., this should be in the documention! and to say "look at /usr/share/examples/lkm" is NOT NOT NOT an answer to "where can I find DOCUMENTATION for writing lkm drivers"
