Certainly possible. His kernel was compiled 30 March. -3 was compiled 3 May. I just installed it, but /requirement/ of "apt-get dist-upgrade" is technically incorrect. I just did it this way just minutes ago: apt dist-upgrade :-) Anil's log from about 3+ hours ago shows he's using the modeset(0) Xorg driver still. He still hasn't reported which video player(s) cause his trouble. Installation of IceWM takes less than 8MB of disk space. Using it startx /usr/bin/icewm to run his player(s) should tell whether the playback performance problem is in Gnome or elsewhere. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
