patch for mgavideo-0.1.1b which allow compiling with i2c-2.8
I didn't find a patch for mgavideo-0.1.0 but i found this one in
kernel-multimedia-source-2.4.22-21mm.1mdk.i586.rpm for mgavideo-0.1.1b

ebuild for mgavideo-0.1.1b with patch for i2c
I copied the ebuild for mgavideo-0.1.0, added the patch for i2c and removed
tuner.o which is no longer included.
I suggest to use mgavideo-0.1.1b. I have used it for more than 6 months without
problems. It is out since 2002-11-29 and no stable version have been released
since then.
Bryan can you handle this? *** Bug 40664 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** changed summary to more accurately reflect that this is no longer just a i2c problem, but a new version of mgavideo. Previous summary: "media-video/mgavideo-0.1.0 doesn't compile with i2c-2.8" I don't what is the policy with that but I think mgavideo could be removed from portage. It's no longer maintened and it applicable only to 2.4 kernels. The 2.6 driver is available on CVS at https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=1764, it's called driver_fb but it need a kernel patch so it's not easily packagable for gentoo. Personnaly, I no longer use my matrox card for capture and I use a 2.6 kernel so I can't easily provide more help on this. As for latest comment, changing this as WONTFIX as it's ot going to be fixed for now. If someone wants to step in and maintain it, it's wellcome. |
