nvtv for Debian --------------- NOTE: This program is still in alpha state. It works fine for me, but other people can get more problems with it. - The program does not cooperate with X's mode switching, so you must reexecute it when the resolution has been changed. - Alternatively, make sure that your application works in the same resolution as desired full-screen resolution, so the mode is not touched when the application switches to full-screen mode. - The program must be executed as root. It is possible to use sudo, but suid permissions are not usable with Gtk, so it is used a daemon called "nvtvd", which run as root and accesses the TV output hardware. It can be controlled by nvtv through two pipes, so nvtv can be run as non-root. -- Eduard Bloch , Mon, 17 Feb 2003 20:58:30 +0100
