Hello, I've experienced something much resembling what you say under 2), also with a Radeon VE and a digital flat panel (Compaq FP500). To see if it is really the same thing i'd, personally, be very happy to hear:
1) Can you cover a Xv-area on the screen in a manner that it remains rectangular, ie make a large xterm cover the right half of the area? 2) If you try to overlap a corner of an Xv-area with another program, which gets focus from the area of overlap? I can overlap Xv with other windows, but only clip the Xv area into rectangular shapes (as opposed to on my TNT2 where it works a treat, at least on the nvidia driver). If I try to overlap only a corner, the focus situation is as if I succeded, but the Xv-image is ontop. I do think this might be considered at least a glitch if not even a bug.
