There is the DeMudi project to put together a Music distribution for Debian,though I was disappointed they weren't focused as much on getting ALSA in as a basic setup. But the video aspect seems much harder to do, since there are a lot more dependencies tied in with different X toolkits and such. Perhaps since Alan Cox has good ties with RedHat and v4l development, he could see if RedHat would provide basic dependency support for these packages, and this list provide details of what's working and what we need, including testing Rawhide distributions for problems before it's released. (I happen to use RedHat, but I'm agnostic as to distribution).

I really WANT to learn Linux, honest, but there just seems to be a shortage of info on the DC10+ and I'm sure other video capture card configurations in Linux. -- Bill Eldridge Radio Free Asia bill@xxxxxxx
