So, Mandriva One 2009.0 works fine in all three cases, but 2009.1 fails with xv? What about 2010.0? <warning> Instead of changing the whole system, you might consider getting the source for the libxv1 from 2009.0 (or 2010.0) and compiling it up, then manually installing it on the 2009.1 system ... </warning> This may screw something else up, of course ... but it might be a good-enough bandaid. Bonus points if you can actually identify the differences between working/non-working, and for actually packaging the manual build into an RPM so you can remove it easily. -jim
