Description Piotr Malinski 2006-09-27 13:12:58 UTC

1. there is a newer version of sisctrl - 
http://www.winischhofer.eu/cgi-bin/downloadpage.cgi?dllink=http://www.winischhofer.net/sis/sisctrl-0.0.20051202.tar.gz
(20051202 available and 20050618 in portage) the 20051202 works for me (more stable than previous)

2. sisctrl wants libXv.so and is searching for it in /usr/X11R6/lib where the lib is in /usr/lib(64)/
###########
checking for libXv.so or libXv.a location... not found in /usr/X11R6/lib
###########
and the compile dies in the middle
- I've symlinked /usr/lib64 under /usr/X11R6/lib and sisctrl compiles and works (it starts thats for sure). I've used it in the past to easily clone display to LCD projectors (on a SiS "powered" Acer Aspire)
