btw, i boot with vga=0x315, if that helps anything. other resolutions
probably work.

I don't have 'vidix' in the configure output either, but it works. I
think they both use the same backend drivers, but the two methods differ
in how the common vidix infrastructure sets up the drivers (i.e. the
xvidix variant gets screen or window size from the X server, while vidix
uses the framebuffer console. or something like that).

The goal is to use the vidix/drivers/cyberblade_vid.c driver, if you're
curious.

According to an lkml alan cox post, the instruction scheduling for the
via C3 chips is most similar to i486, so that's what you want to
optimize for. I pass "-target=i486-linux --enable-mmx --enable-3dnow
--disable-mmx2 --disable-3dnowex --disable-sse --disable-sse2" to
mplayer's configure.

close... no x. "display = fbdev:vidix"

I have this in local_conf.py:

OVERSCAN_X = 24
OVERSCAN_Y = 40

MPLAYER_ARGS_DEF     = '-ac mad, -autosync 100 -autoq 100 -zoom -x %s -y %s' %
        (CONF.width - 16, CONF.height - 40)

You can also use -fs, but with my config (an 800x600 fbdev) that
actually scales to 800x546 for some reason. The above config gets you
784x560, which seems to fit my TV better.
