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) :-( -Hugh LaMaster
