some card/mobo combos can't handle buffers larger than 128kB, we change the default buffer to 128kB, add warnings if the buffer becomes full, add a commandline option to enlarge the buffer and give suggestions to users to lessen the buffer size requirements (lower quality/resolution). 128kB should, however, be enough for everybody :-). Bug reported by Brain Edmonds, cause explained (to allow me to fix the driver) by Ronald Bultje (mjpegtools developer)

VIDIX - Video Interface for *niX.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This library was designed and introduced as interface to userspace drivers
to provide DGA everywhere where it's possible (unline X11).
I hope that these drivers will be portable same as X11 (not only on *nix).

For detail on how to develop new driver see main/DOCS/tech/vidix.txt
