As my aim was to stay compatible with KDE2 I ifdefed the relevant parts so
KDE_2_2_BRANCH kwintv  should compile with both Qt/KDE 2 _and_ 3. 

However as I just discovered this isn't entirely true. See below.

Ok, I took the code from the KDE_2_2_BRANCH and checked it. Functionality wise
the only difference to HEAD is the change of the default video device to
/dev/video0.

There is a problem with the Makefile however. Because of the kfile move a KDE2
version needs to link against libkfile while a KDE3 version needs to link
against libkio. The latter is the way it is currently in KDE_2_2_BRANCH CVS. So
in fact is doesn't compile with KDE2. I don't know how to make that portable.
The only solution would be to add some configure switch --with-kde3, but I've
no clue how to do that. So changing it back to libkfile is probably the easiest
solution, as we have a separate KDE3 branch(HEAD) now.

I changed those things and it compiles and run fine against KDE2 now. I
committed that to CVS. So it's now KDE2 -> KDE_2_2_BRANCH and KDE3 -> HEAD.

I think it certainly makes sence to have another release of current CVS for
both KDE2 and 3(that would be two different tarballs because of the above
problem). However I have no clue how this is done. But if someone(George?)
would tell me I could do it.
