This is weird.
Some change to -current between ~Dec 22 and ~Jan 8 has caused video
playback (mplayer playing DivX with the xv driver) on my Thinkpad
X40 to become headache-inducingly jerky. mplayer itself is not
aware of the problem, it doesn't report a low frame rate.
- It's in the kernel. Simply going back to my old kernel (Dec 22)
makes the problem go away.
- It isn't the sys/dev/pci/agp.c changes.
Does anybody else see this?
I see it as well, although the jerkyness is only noticable here, not
headache-inducing (IMO, on an AMD 2600+ with a Geforce FX6600.)
Admittedly, I didn't look into this issue, so I can't comment further on
the reason(s).
