            Status: UNCONFIRMED

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)
