Re: Problem with NVIDIA drivers

2003-07-26 Thread ydg
one thing you'll want to do is comment out the Load dri line in
XF86Config.
what is /var/log/XFree86.0.log report?
you might also want to try making your default depth 16, ive had
experiences with 24bpp creating unexpected problems.

 Hello,
 I've installed the nvidia drivers from the ports. I've followed the 
 instructions, and all the files are in their directory. But when I'm 
 trying to start X, the machine crash and reboot. I've looked into the 
 archives to see if someone had this problem but they are presently 
 unavailable.
 
 p.s.: Could it be possible that this line that I received everytime
 that I fired up X be the culprit ?
 bad display name gryphon.krockmitaine.org:0 in remove command.
 How can I correct this ?
 
 This is a fresh install, 4.8, with the latest cvsup. Also, the
 equipment is a GeForce 256 with a ViewSonic E790. I've included my
 XF86Config and the config file for my kernel.
 
 Thanks in advance
 
 Marc

Re: CDRom able to play DVD movies

2003-07-16 Thread ydg
I think ive heard thru the same grapevine as you about such a
contraption. i have no idea if something of this nature exists or not.
and initial logic makes me think [exactly as previously stated] cd
drives, are hardware for cd's. and only dvd's drive has the necessary
extra hardware to read dvd's.
However, what ive heard is there's some kind of tweaked emulation
under windows, which tricks the system into thinking the cdrom drive
is a dvd drive, and the system compensates for the work the drive cant
actually do [perhaps some kind of 'on the fly decode/read']. no idea
if such a beast exists. and with today's prices, its probably easier
to simply buy a dvd drive. :)

 I wanted to be sure - someplace, somewhere I heard, that under
 windows, this could be done. Heh - I musta overheard that from some
 other users in passing - I was sure that wasn't the case, but in a day
 where you can purchase software (windows-wize) to boost your internet
 speed, blah, blah, blah - I just had to ask.
 
 Thanks for confirming what I had expected all along.

Re: Freevo in freebsd?

2003-07-13 Thread ydg
In theory it should be doable. I tried playing with it for a little
while. but eventually gave up, and settled for mythtv on a slackware
box. However, i know there was some talk about someone in the #freebsd
channel on freenode, who had successfully gottan it running on fbsd.
