I wrote a PixelView kernel video4linux module for CLGD5465-based tuner.
Who is the maintainer of video4linux? . To whom should I submit the
driver for double-checking/ inclusion
in the kernel ?

Gerd I guess. How are you handling the interlocking between the X server
and the tuner for registers ?

For now, you have to load the module after the X starts. Otherwise it
stucks up (deadlock
I think ). To make things even worse, I run all on dual-headed
dual-videocard +xinerama machine.

Into my personal mailbox? Nothing arrived here ...
I've only seen the call-for-testers announcement on the v4l list.

Sounds like it needs some more work ...
