------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-19 00:14 ------- The bug with ati drivers is fixed, but why does avview depend on ati drivers ? Perhaps we should also make tuxracer depend on nvidia drivers ;) If ati drivers are really necessary to use avview with ati cards, isn't there another way to organize dependancies ? ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: Hi Today, i installed avview. urpmi asked me if I wanted to install also ati.2 package, for ati drivers. I replyed yes, thinking it won't mess my system. How wrong was I ! I'm the owner a nvidia video card (and of course I use it), and the ati.2 package moved my XFree86 drivers to another directory and put his own drivers instead. Hey, avview isn't only for ATI users ! (although it comes from the GATOS project). The result was that my X server crashed after a few minutes, and that I was unable to restart X. I really wondered what happened, and realized that X couldn't loaded my nvidia driver because ati.2 moved this driver to another directory. Would it be possible to remove the ati.2 dependency ? I was able to run avview before X crashed, and i found two others bugs: - audio not hearable at the beginning, I had to invert the mute setting two times - resizing was quite weird, cursor not following the window border when resizing, and window scale weird Thanks for caring with this. (without forgetting Pascal Terjan, which thought with me about the ATI-correlation of avview)
