Probably. I'm sorry you had all these problems whilst I was sleeping,
otherwise I would have tried to help out! You now know many times
more about libXv than I ever did. It was just something I had to
stick in the link to get it to build.

Great.

You're right -- I should learn about automake and get the build
process more standard somehow.

The reason I was thinking of putting a chunk of the FFTW code into the
source bundle was because of some of the build problems on Windows and
the fact that we don't really need the user to install the FFTW
libraries, especially if they have the 64-bit version already
installed. There are solutions to this, though, and I think you're
right -- I should try and give it the standard "./configure; make;
make install" build process.

Thanks! -- I saw the pictures. OpenEEG is already reaching the places
no other EEG software has ever reached before!
