The spigot library is available from ftp://ftp.cs.uwm.edu/pub/FreeBSD/spigot/spigot.tar.gz or from ports collection. I am not sure why the type is disabled in vic. I suppose there is a reason. You could ask the author about why. The default for for the meteor to come up in ``auto'' mode which should auto detect pal or ntsc input -- but since I don't have a PAL device here I can't really test what is going on with vic and pal. Can someone with a PAL input device confirm that vic works with that type of device? Are there any problems?

The truth is that I havn't had time to update to Amancio's sound driver. I am still running the sound stuff that is in -current. I think I commented out a couple of printf's that are in /sys/i386/isa.c that someone added and that is what I am running. Everything else that I am running is in the m-src distribution (well, I updated a couple of things, but there are no functional changes from that distribution).
