Bug#390287: xawtv: Don't show any tv
# not sure why this was here
tag 390287 - patch
thanks
pushling provided me with another strace, of the case where xawtv was
functioning (with the symlink in place, as described above); the strace
is attached.
When comparing it to the strace of the failing xawtv, it turns out that
in the strace for the _working_ process, /dev/dri/card0 can't be
openened correctly (probably because it is not a proper dri device).
Because of this, libGL falls back to some other, slower rendering of the
tv image:
| stat64("/dev/dri/card0", {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0660, st_rdev=makedev(81, 0), ...})
= 0
| open("/dev/dri/card0", O_RDWR)= 4
| ioctl(4, DECODER_SET_PICTURE, 0xbfeaca50) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
| ioctl(4, DECODER_GET_CAPABILITIES, 0xbfeaca54) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
| close(4) = 0
...
| write(2, "libGL error: open DRM failed (Op"..., 55) = 55
| write(2, "libGL error: reverting to (slow)"..., 52) = 52
The strace of the non-fucntioning xawtv, otoh, shows that /dev/dri/card0
is opened correctly, and linGL tries to use it to show the video. In
the end of the strace, it seems some ioctl on that device fails:
| ioctl(4, 0x4008642a, 0xbff16824)= ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted)
So, I'm guessing that this is either a bug in the reporter's GL/dri
setup, or a bug in OpenGL.

Bug#390287: xawtv doesn't work here
Hello, I tested Xawtv here, and I have the same experience: * Sound works fine; * Image is just noise; * BTTV is loaded fine, other tv-app works just fine. Also, in the documentation I read: "Don't expect you can use xawtv without reading the documentation at least once." This is obviously not acceptable; it should work out of the box. I recommend to remove this package, as it doesn't have a real maintainer for two years and there's many alternatives available.
