FreevoLive 0.10 is here!
- Freevo 1.6.3 is now installed, which as you know is the latest stable
release of Freevo.
- Display is switched to SDL in order to keep full screen video on the
framebuffer
- Some setterm commands were added, to stop the screen from blanking, and
remove the flickering cursor after having played a video.
- A script was added (which actually was introduced in .09) to enable the
saa713x TV cards.
Besides that, FreevoLive has been moved to a very nice family: TuxFamily!
See it on http://freevolive.tuxfamily.org
Please feel free to try it, and tell me what works, and what doesn't :-D
BTW: I installed Freevo 1.6.3 with an test-rpm made by a member of the Dutch
MandrivaClub, so there should be an official mcnl-rpm in a very short time
;-)

2007/1/7, Michel Hoogervorst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I just uploaded a new and improved version (yeah, it's getting newer and
more improved day by day :P)
This version has xawtv installed, because harddrake seems to need it to be
able to configure most TV-cards during boot-time. (My bttv card already
worked without it, but it _could_ solve to problem with the cx8800 driver).
Also I enabled a few TV channels (22, 55 and 66) so one can check if the
TV card works without having to leave Freevo (and we don't wanna leave
Freevo don't we? ;)).
For more info, again see:
