Bug 26073 – ebuild for sisctrl, a gtk2 frontend to fiddeling with SiS drivers while in X.

• Status: VERIFIED TEST-REQUEST
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Terje Kvernes 2003-08-06 13:13:54 UTC]

okay, so we have Thomas Winischhoefers SiS drivers for X, here is the very nice
tool to adjust the driver settings without quitting and restarting X.  somewhat
like Matrox' PowerDesk.

note, I don't have portage on any box that runs SiS chipsets, so I've only been
able to test this ebuild by copying the driver over to a RedHat-box using a SiS
chipset.  ~x86 is a good idea[tm].

the ebuild itself.

I'd appreciate this ebuild, too. The latest release is 20030924 so the ebuild
has to be modified a bit...

Well I don't have a SiS chipset either, but I have cleaned up the ebuild a bit
and bumped it to the new version. It merges fine and detects I don't have a SiS
chipset when it runs, but I'd like a little more confirmation its working OK
before I commit.

Calling all SiS 300/315/330 owners! Please test this ebuild.

Thanks

Merges fine and runs well, too...

This should be added to portage soon...

It works here perfectly.

Thanks for testing, in CVS.
