Already done all that (SDL was done right, links are there, installed all
dependencies, no more runtime), still the same problem.
Just a question, if I have not activated the games plugin in freevo, why
does it bother me with pygame errors in the first place?

pygame.error: No available video device


I have seen this error in other threads before, but could not find a
resolution to this.
I have already added:  plugin.remove('game')   in my local_conf.py (although
i don't think it ever gets loaded in the main freevo_conf.py to begin with).

If I run mplayer with -vo dfbmga (or directfb), it works fine.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

    You have to start installing the dependecies, don't use runtime. If you
have already installed the dependencies, then you need to recompile SDL, I
have a howto on my page.
Give it a try and let me know if it works:
http://freevo.webalias.com/matrox.html

Make sure to make the links, I believe this works for all version of Matrox
cards...
Look for "Installing SDL:" and follow from there.
