when i run zapping i get the following error:

lv@ayanami lv $ zapping
execvp(zapping_setup_fb): No such file or directory
Message: Error while executing zapping_setup_fb,
Previewing might not work:
[tveng.c] tveng_run_zapping_setup_fb (line 1547)
case 2 failed: Couldn't locate zapping_setup_fb, check your install

Gdk-ERROR **: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)
  serial 3283 error_code 11 request_code 142 minor_code 19


.....yeah, ignore the gdk error for now. that's a whole other issue.
zapping will work perfectly untill you try to fullscreen it.

ayanami portage # ls /usr/sbin/zap*
ls: /usr/sbin/zap*: No such file or directory
ayanami portage # ls /usr/bin/zap*
/usr/bin/zapping  /usr/bin/zapping_fix_overlay  /usr/bin/zapzilla


the zapping source -is- compiling this binary.

ayanami zapping-0.6.6 # ls -l ./zapping_setup_fb/zapping_setup_fb 
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        23972 Jul  9 01:02
./zapping_setup_fb/zapping_setup_fb


just needs a fix in the ebuild to install this. a simple workaround is to make
install in the source directory after doing an ebuild compile on the ebuild. No
biggie by any means. Even got fullscreen tv out of the deal. :)

I'd submit a patched ebuild but the fix is a quickie and i have some serious
playstation2 time to get in. =D

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge zapping 0.6.6
2. fullscreen while watching some choice tv


Actual Results:  
freaks out

Expected Results:  
full-screen tv fun
