The code I committed to Xorg tree should be under MIT/X license - I would
be very surprised if any GPL messages sneaked through.
As Shawn pointed out the USB remove and kernel driver are GPL (both are
Linux drivers).
Also, AVview (TV viewing application) is also GPL.
Lastly, TV-out code produced by Federico Ulivi is also GPL.
