RedHat has a glibc2 compatibility RPM that you can install (compat-glibc-5.2-2.0.7.1 - part of the RH6 RPM set). Then you'll need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running civctp:
Actually there are a half dozen formats being used for DTV and HDTV. All of the HDTV sets will support all of the formats, but the broadcasts will vary. Some of the networks will broadcast in 1024i (1024 lines, interlaced), but mostly just for football games and other high-profile events. Most of the broadcasts will be 640i or 640p. I haven't heard of anyone willing to use the necessary bandwidth to broadcast with the best resolution available (1024p).
And, oh by the way, the Japanese HDTV is entirely different. Theirs is actually analog.
The FCC has given each broadcast station an extra channel for broadcasting digital (either DTV or HDTV--their choice). Broadcasts will be carried on both the analog channel and the digital channel for the next seven to ten years (It was supposed to go to 2006, but broadcasters want it pushed back a few years.) Then all analog broadcasts will stop, and the FCC will reclaim the spectrum allocated for regular TV broadcasts.
In other words, they can and will make every TV obsolete within the next ten years.
Natural Microsystems has better boards, especially for industrial applications. They have released Linux drivers as well as source to their API at http://www.opentelecom.org.
