I am still confused to where xineliboutput-cvs-20091013-vdpau-extensi ons-v11.diff.gz goes. head -n3 returns this: diff -Naurb -x '.[a-zA-Z#]*' -x debian -x CVS xineliboutput-head-orig/Make.config xineliboutput-head/Make.config --- xineliboutput-head-orig/Make.config 1970-01-01 00:00:00.000000000 +0000 +++ xineliboutput-head/Make.config 2009-06-29 13:25:52.000000000 +0000 I don't know of a xineliboutput-head package in gentoo, neither does there exists a head on xineliboutput on sourceforge. So is this patch debian specific? Thanks for any help, Theunis _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
