I'm pretty sure I've done everything in the list archive.
Patched the kernel with vsync (although I dont think this is necessary if you are
using the newer mplayer triple switch.
I'm using mplayer 0.90-r5 under gentoo. I applied the latest dfbmga patch to this
(this provided triple and fixed a problem with spic)
Mplayer works fine under dfbmga on its own.
my frewevo.conf contains
display = dfbmga
geometry = 720x480
tv = pal
I've also used 720x576 with no luck
/etc/directfbrc
atrox-crtc2
matrox-tv-standard=pal
primary-layer=2
I'm using sdl 1.25 which I believe no longer needs the patch. ( did try the patch,
but I was getting Fuzz 1)
lsmod

When I run freevo I get this
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "src/main.py", line 134, in ?
skin = skin.get_singleton()
File "src/skin.py", line 78, in get_singleton

I'd like to get freevo running with dfbmga, because I have found that mga_vid often
gives me grief during freevo upgrades and I'd like to obtain the absolute best
quality. Besides, I just can't resist playing with the thing :).
I'd appreciate any suggestions. Have I missed anything obvious.
I thought if we could get all this info in one place we could add it to the wicki.
I've gatherred a lot of useful info from the archive. Thanks to those who've trod
this path before.
