Hi,
The XFree86 driver in RC1 is the first one for Trident which has actually had
the XV extension work on my piece of junk gateway laptop! I got to watch
full screen DVD's today and everything!
Tonights update - we're back to broken again.
I don't think it's necessarily the driver code. Is it possible that the
compile flages might have been different or something similar? Not so much
the code but how it was built?
What happens when it crashes is that the non Xv window goes all one color,
usually blue, while the Xv window goes slowly to all another color, usually
green, one vertical line at a time. In the mean time, all other processes
stop, the machine locks up solid.
Worst case, can save my RC1 disks for their working XFree86 - but damn! this
has been a problem for me for almost 2 years, and it WAS WORKING - and i
don't know why. <sigh>
Any info would be appreciated.
V.
