I have played with this on fb and so far, it is SWEET! Using syncfb has given me the smoothest scroll of the CNN banner I have seen yet. As smooth as broadcast! And preliminary tests did not reveal any "tear"s either. > http://teletux.sourceforge.net/ This syncfb did not work the the latest Mplayer. I had to use the syncfb in the mplayer/drivers/syncfb directory. Unfortunately it hung my (Athlon TB 800) machine when I tried to use the right arrow to skip some frames. I wonder if I am getting hit by the bug that was recently discovered re: athlons. I would really like the CVS version of syncfb to work with Mplayaer. Maybe I will mosey on over to the Mplayer list and see what is up with it. b. -- Brian J.
