I tested grabber-meteor.cc last night, replacing only the
grabber-meteor.cc with the modified version, and tested vic
with the bt848 driver that is part of 2.2.5-beta.  It worked.
I wouldn't call it extensive testing, though.  I wasn't 
following a formal test plan :-)  ATI Graphics Xpression 2 MB DRAM,
vic-2.8 from /usr/ports, recompiled with Amancio's grabber-meteor.cc,
ATI Mach64 server at 1280x1024x8 bpp, 2.2.5-beta.  Any negative
experiences out there?  If not, perhaps the time has come to include
the modified grabber-meteor.cc as part of the vic-2.8 package, 
since the Bt848 driver and fxtv are both "standard" now.

Now, if I could just get all the Tcl/Tk apps to live in a consistent
world (4.1/4.2/8.0; 7.4/7.5/7.6/X/8.0)  :-(
