$ xawtv This is xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1, running on Linux/ppc64 (2.6.26-2-powerpc64) xinerama 0: 1280x1024+0+0 /dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYMENU(id=9963800;index=0;name=";reserved=268693400): Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*" to type FontStruct ioctl: VIDIOC_G_STD(std=0x48004422000004e8 [PAL_H,PAL_D,PAL_D1,PAL_K,PAL_Nc,(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null)]): Invalid argument Segmentation fault I have absolutely no idea what that means .
