Hi

I am now able to compile and run ginn with XI2.1 an gentoo and I am
currently cleaning up the ebuilds.
Hopefully I will be finished in the next days. Then I will also make some
videos of the whole in action.

The problem I had with inputproto was, that the xi2.1 patch for input proto
change the version to 2.0.99.1.
Do you have an explanation for that? I think it is a little irritating when
you install a package with the version number 2.0.1 and in the pc-file is
version 2.0.99.1 entered.

Thanks for your help and please continue with the work on the uTouch stack.

Andreas
