Hi people,
I am currently doing an article discussing what is needed to get Xsync
working on Linux and Unix in generel. Currently Xsync can't really work
on Linux due to the lack of a retrace interupt connector in the kernel,
and without that we have no good way of getting a good dependable master
clock for Xsync (audio and video synching).

However the Linux and XFree people I have talked to are working on
getting both the retrace interupt connector in place and adding code
behind the Xsync protocol to XFree.

I would however like to also mention FreeBSD and how this work could
also benefit FreeBSD so I was wondering if anyone here know if the
FreeBSD kernel already have the needed support so you are just waiting
for the XFree code and a good soundserver or if anyone would be willing
to add such code to the FreeBSD kernel to enable Xsync to also work on
FreeBSD.
