ggi and video-cards

are video-cards in the scope of ggi ?? i just ask because i have a hauppage
418 but can't look videos with a ggi-app. the only interface which is given
to the card is via video4linux-ioctls and as fas i'm concerned i don't like
ioctls. i love wrappers around ioctls (like ggi->kgi). 

based on my feelings i had a small look at the web and the only thing i've
found was that xfree 4.0 will have an video-card interface.

is there a need for a gvi ??
("godforsaken" video interface) [i just read the penguinplay-irc-log :) ]

btw: which projects use the g..-naming-sheme so far??
- ggi
- gsi
- gwt
- ggi2d

what about gci for ggi-console aka evstack fka evstream ??

( is fka vaild Three Letter Acronym ?? -> formerly know as ).

thats all
