Thanks for the reply.=A0 I tried one more thing by recompiling mplayer and =

the mga_vid source files in the libvo directory with the source files from =
the mga_vid
tarball.=A0 The result was =

[MGA] mismatch between kernel (1) and MPlayer (514) mga_vid driver versions

It looks like you are using a very outdated version of mga_vid
together with a current mga_vid_test.
I changed in May 2008 the ioctl interface of mga_vid, which means
that if you are using such an old kernel, you have to use the
same mga_vid.h to compile your application with. Otherwise
you'll run into ioctl problems.

The true CS students do not need to know how to program.
They learn how to abstract the process of programming to
the point of making programmers obsolete.
