Kernel 64-bit (so all 16 GB  of phys ram usable, also kvm virtual
machines!) but all userspace is 32bit.

Additionally, I have no pulseaudio running so for
shotcut/flowblade I need to set SDL_AUDIODRIVER=alsa.

sure, I even slightly patched it for 32-bit build. But since New Year
there was restructuring on repo, so I not yet tried to rebase/rebuild
that.

Attached is my hack for olive git
e7982239b8c736baab9ed29ba89e7a3f1342700a (use CXX=clang++ before
running "cmake .."  from build dir)

Also attached is my screenshot compressed with pngquant - it really
tries to get nicely-looking 8-bit + transperency PNG
Optipng compressed original from ksnapshot down to

252K vs 256K

and pngquant (destructively/ non-losless but with new filename)
compressed down to

96K

Yay for mailing list server?
(still I think adding many screenshots actually still bad idea, just
want to show cool new tool I noticed while researching BD menus)
