For vic to work with the spigot as a regular user, you need the following kernel configuration: device spigot0 at isa? port 0xad6 iomem 0xd0000 vector spigintr options SPIGOT_UNSECURE # non-root access to spigot, security prob. You should also create /dev/spigot, then vic will be able to recognize the device. The meteor should work with the 440fx chipset if you don't use the multiple dma transfer mode (i.e. use the YUV_PACKED mode). The ports collection contains vic with the patched grabber_meteor.cc for YUV_PACKED mode. Do you still have lock up problems with the meteor and the version of vic in ports? -Jim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
