Thanx > Michael! Yeap, I am very happy with the cooperation of the group . It is getting better and better 8) The sound control is working great over here! --- Looking a little bit ahead . 1. I see the tuner code being separated by a minor device . 2. Will try to turn bt848 into a loadable module. Just posted to hackers on whether we can allocate a large contiguous memory segment at runtime and it looks like it may be possible most of the times . You will have to be running 3.0-current for this method to work. Worst possible scenario is that it may require a single reboot and load the module as one the first things that the kernel does when is up. 3. Maybe a motif client . I have not tried this out yet however it looks promising: ---- Subject: lxb 0.5 - X/Motif GUI Builder Date: 6 Mar 97 21:29:51 GMT From: parki005@gold.tc.umn.edu (Bruce E Parkin) Organization: University of Minnesota Newsgroups: comp.windows.x.announce I have uploaded version 0.5 of lxb to sunsite.unc.edu. lxb is an X/Motif interactive graphical user interface builder. With it you can build GUI made up of Motif widgets instantiated by clicking on icons, move and resize them with the mouse, and edit their resources. Once the GUI is built, pressing a button will produce the required C source and header files to build the GUI, and an X resource file and Makefile. lxb is a work in progress. Most but not all Motif widgets are available, and most but not all resources can be edited. There are many features of a good GUI builder yet to be done. lxb will eventually be found in /pub/Linux/X11/devel. The 3 files associated with lxb are: 1) lxb.README (this file) 2) lxb-0.5.tar.gz 3) lxb.lsm The Homepage for lxb is http://www.umn.edu/nlhome/g257/parki005/lxb/lxb.html --- Have fun guys! Amancio
