Ok, I'll let the X.org maintainers know about this bug. In the mean time, I found a patch against RealVNC that works around this (by changing all the bogus visuals). With this, mplayer works perfectly. Additionally, this includes a patch that fixes GLX support on -depth 24. I was experiencing crashes of this sort: $ glxinfo name of display: :1.0 X Error of failed request: GLXBadContext Major opcode of failed request: 150 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent) Serial number of failed request: 17 Current serial number in output stream: 17 (Curiously, mplayer -vo gl2 worked while mplayer -vo gl crashed.) With this patch, all opengl apps work as expected. Any chance of seeing these fixes make it into RealVNC FE for Unix 4.1.2? Patch is at http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2005-June/008343.html -- Infinite complexity begets infinite beauty. Infinite precision begets infinite perfection. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
