Hello
I finally took the time to dl the fantastic Luminocity DVD. Looks like a lot of work went into it and it shows. Thank you Pieter and the Gentoo team.. Here are a couple of questions I hope people can help with

1. Gnome meeting (video conferencing) I've had this installed in my Debian config and couldnt get it working with my Firewire Digital Video Camera and was hoping it would work "out of the box" with the Live DVD - I tried the Druid configuration and it doesnt see the camera - I tried V4l driver and DVC. How to get this working with FW Camera please? (I have a Panasonic DV cam) -

2. How is work on the installable Live DVD coming?

3. Do you guys have Altivec OPtimized MythTV, FREEVO, or KINO?

Thanks alot for all your efforts and good work :-D

I haven't tried it with a firewire camera myself but I've been told that it should work. Could you try using the other firewire port on the pegasos?

Pieter is working on that for the next incantation of the LiveDVD. In the meantime you can use his install guide available here: http://www.metadistribution.org/blog/ar ... g_the#body

These three applications are all available, and AltiVec optimizations is something you get for free with portage. All you need to do is to configure GCC to use the correct optimization flags (via /etc/make.conf). This should be even better when GCC 4.x becomes stable in a couple of months.

To get your camera working:

modprobe video1394
modprobe raw1394
chmod 666 /dev/raw1394
chmod 666 /dev/video1394/0

You can try using coriander or gnomemeeting to see if your camera is picked up. We're planning to use the Quickcam 4000 pro initially, but switched to ieee1394 cameras because they have higher resolutions and lower latency. In Austin, we already created a newer revision that loads the modules automatically. There is a new dvd comming, currently adding mythtv/freevo :-) The new dvd has support for the VFD in ahanix cases, supports IRDA, SATA (silicon image) drives, ...
