Speaking of Xv, I just bought a Nvidia TNT2 (Tornado) PCI as a second
card for Xinerama (to replace an aging S3 Virge). However it seems it
doesn't support Xv. How can I be sure ?
In the log, the only thing I see is:
(II) R128(0): LeaveVT: Shutting down Xvideo subsystems
(II) R128(0): Rage Theatre setting standard 0x0000
(II) Screen 0 shares mem & io resources
(II) Screen 1 shares mem & io resources
(II) Screen 0 shares mem & io resources
(II) Screen 1 shares mem & io resources
(II) R128(0): Starting up Xvideo subsystems
(II) R128(0): Rage Theatre setting standard 0x0000
(II) Entity 0 shares no resources
(II) Entity 1 shares no resources

when switching to/from vt (R128 is my main card). Nothing for the NV
driver. Is there any doc somewhere on this driver ? Is Xinerama
compatible with Xv on both cards ?
X4.1.0 here.
